Title: IP-256SL Screw Sizes
Post by: blueducati on December 03, 2018, 10:11:49 AM

After a few years of not riding MTB's, I've decided to put the 256-SL back together.

The RD hanger screws are in bad shape (hanger is a bit loose and the screw heads seem stripped). Does anyone know what size those are?

Also- The little set screw for the rear axle is missing, anyone know what size that is? I plan on just going to buy a bunch of different sizes and trying them out, but I figured I'd ask here if anyone knew.

Thanks!

Why don't you take your RD hanger to the hardware store and ask them to find the right screws?

And for the small screw to fixate the axle, see MTB2223's contribution on page 4 of my build thread:

Good luck!

An M4, 10mm length with a conic head.
I'm giving a second life to my broken 256 frame as a home trainer, and just tried.
