Remember when I said that my bike had 4 mm screws for the water bottle
mount? Flunky told you all that I was lying because 5 mm was the
standard for all water bottle mounts. Funny thing is that my new Time
ULTeam uses 3 mm with a wide head. Perhaps Flunky can suggest why the
country of the Tour de France doesn't stick to his "standard"?

 
My $5 says it's not a 3mm screw.
Remove that screw and measure it.
 
More probably a ULS or a 7991 screw, m5x0.8 with a 3mm hex broach on the
head.

 
Agreed, although I'd bet more than $5.
 
It seems Tom doesn't know how to measure or specify a screw size.
 

Indeed it’s the growing list of stuff he’s convinced himself that the world
is flat…
