I am not complaining or anything, as bolt replacing is hard work that mostly goes without thanks.

But...

The last bolt on Connect 4 before you move left into undercuts is now not clipable on lead, and is pretty much un clipable at all without a clip stick. This stops any suitors for an onsight/flash attempt.

The old one now seems to have been removed as this was in an ok place for clipping.

I think the problem with the position of the old one was that it is in a seepage line, hence the reason it is so rusty. Its a shame if it has been removed altogether though because it was possible to clip this and just back it up with the new one.

In reply to Adam Lincoln: You can clip after the crux move, with your left hand on the good undercut. Well I did anyway, as I hated trying to clip before the move. I agree the new bolt is in the wrong place but there's not many other places one can go IIRC. You could alway's place a new one.

Why is this? Are you going to deck if the last bolt isn't clipped?

Surely it can be on-sighted / flashed by clipping the bolt after the move?

True but might feel a tad run out. Anyway, like i said above, i am not complaining, and i will probably move it myself.

It was awkward to find a decent spot, someone else removed the old one after I put that one in.

Hopefully Will will get chance to put the Nyloc nuts on before he goes off to Spain, but IMHO the best solution for Connect Four is some well-placed glue-ins due to the sidewards forces.

When you going Spain will? I will hopefully have a new stereo soon so you can have my old one if you haven't left by then!

At the end of the month, if its out the radio would be much appreciated, Im not looking forward to hours of span fm.

Tried to change the nuts today- the nylock nuts are too big for the bolts, the normal nuts seemed tight enough at the moment.
