If you look on the Awesome website, it states in the description of the ECS insert that it is a stretch bolt

still not convinced, I've used stretch bolts on cars,bikes and planes before and they've have a waisted portion where the 'stretch' takes place. Both these bolts don't, they just look like plain big bolts, I might be wrong and if in doubt fit a new one.

I must admit mine didn't look like a stretch bolt either :shocked:

If the bolt hardness is rated 10 then it shouldn't stretch.
Without traction power is nothing!
