Gotta be careful with stainless. I use titanium on my other bike. Hex screws are pretty much the same area but the force is in shear so the head area is irrelevant effectively. I will be changing them but 6 of the originals got mangled. The hex HDS have been used for 25 000 miles thus far. Stainless is fine as long as the correct type is used
