On a bolt related note, does anyone have a link where I can still get the 6mm broached Profile 5/16-18 bolts? Can't find them on their site or any of the mail orders.

they only have the 1/4" allen broach available now. I talked to Profile shortly after posting that and they mentioned the batch of of 6mm broached bolts they made were over heated during the heat treatment. This made them brittle and they are no longer available. I did find my old Blue6 5/16-18 bolts so I will probably end up using those for the 6mm convenience.

Bummer! Anyone have a spare set of B6 bolts kicking about?

3 of the homies and I put preorders in at Empire for the next batch. I'm bummed about the imperial threads but I might just drill it out and run a metric helicoil kit through. Been waiting long enough and it looks so good that I have to get one anyways.

I agree 100%. As soon as I saw that it has imperial hardware, that was enough for me to not want it. And, I'm a proud T1 owner and booster. That said, I'm glad it finally got made and that everyone that owns one seems super stoked on it. It just isn't for me. I'm in the market for a new stem and I think the Relic Eon (rider owned company, USA made, metric hardware) is the way to go.
