I saw in a post here a while ago that a guy had put a nut on the heelclicker bolt to get some extra weight on the tip. I am aiming for 7 grams.
a) Is this safe?
b) Where can I find a nut that fits the heelclicker bolt? It had threads that were not similar to the nuts at the hardware store.
 

The hardware used in the h/c's is 1/4"-28, very common here in the states, but maybe not over there? Yes, you can run a nut instead of washers or about 2 washers, slightly longer bolt and a nut on the backside, this will get ya about 8-9 grams. I have ran 2 washers, longer button head bolt with a std nut on it and it will clear the pocket of the spider, never had any problems. I like to use a slightly longer bolt so I can get a good thread engagement on the nut, if you use the supplied bolt its(nut) barely on the bolt.

Thanks, that helps alot. Maybe I'll order a couple of those. I've also got a 50/38 helix now in addition to my 50/36 so I have more options to get the rpms down.
