The chain ring guard came so I set about mounting the chain rings and
the guard. I ordered new chain ring bolts because I didn't want to
disassemble the old crank. The new inner bolts had hex deep down
inside and I figure that was fine until I could not find a allen
wrench that fit them. I tried both metric and standard and nothing
fits. The bolts on my old crank take a #5 allen.
Does anyone know what's going on?
I ordered another set of 16mm bolts and they look like they have a
larger hex that's not set deep inside it.

News to me; 5-arm 110mm chainring bolts are a universal commodity AFAIK.With a magnifier, see if they are just broached poorly or maybe if they are Torx. If you succumbed to the bad idea of an aluminum chainring bolt that's very possible.-- Andrew Muziam@yellowjersey.orgOpen every day since 1 April, 1971
