Apr 22, 2014 at 14:44 comment added Benzo mcmaster.com They have a huge selection of small hardware. Measure your existing bolt and get a replacement of similar length. These folks ship very quickly, so you should have your item in a couple days. I've ordered lots of different metric bolts for mounting racks, fenders, bottles, etc...

Apr 22, 2014 at 2:18 comment added Daniel R Hicks A well-equipped hardware store (probably not Home Depot) should have a selection of stainless steel metric bolts. Or a bike shop can probably help you. (The bolt likely does not have to be a round-head -- a "socket-head cap screws" would probably work as well -- but you may find a "socket-head button screws" if you look around.)

Apr 22, 2014 at 1:04 comment added Batman Presumably you have the other bolt. Take it to your local hardware shop (e.g. Home Depot) and look in the hardware section for a new bolt. I'd guess its a M5 bolt, but you can easily match its length and size by looking through the nuts, screws and bolts of the hardware shop. Worst case, you get a whole new set of stops for 10 bucks or whatever, online. They should have hex headed ones, but sometimes you'll have to do with a philips/flat head one.
