Allan key size for Givi 340F arms

[Buzz]

Evening...

I've got to get my Givi rack off as it's geting a bit rusty in parts but I don't seem to have the correct size allan hex bit.  Anyone know the size of the bolts marked 6 and 7 ?

Cheers..Buzz

Cheers! I really need to get a proper set of Hex bits, I've got so many bent and mismatched allan keys from my mountain biking days it's untrue, none of them with any markings.  Might just get one of these and be done with it.

A good investment indeed!  Those allen heads are easily mangled with old allen keys. Or if you can hold out for a while they do good deals on full sets of tools and they'd be included.

As above the sets are pretty good value, and they are currently half price (they usually are though).

Throw the old mangled ones away!

Throw the old mangled ones away!

They're finally in the bin!  I've already got a decent socket set, deep set ring spanners, 2 torque wrenches plus a breaker bar and 32mm socket if anyone needs help with the front sprocket in N London!

You know it makes sense!-the new good tools will soon pay for themselves & last a lifetime if top quality so work out cheaper in the end. Happy spannering!
