@@RJTheBikeGuy you are correct sir. My 1986 Giant made Schwinn World has M5 for the bottle cages, but M6 for the fender/rack bolt holes. There's only one hole on the rear triangle, each side, so I use an M6 with the fender stay outside/rack stay inside. I did have to drill out and enlarge the fender stay holes to get the M6 bolt in.

Why aluminum rivnuts and not zinc plated steel rivnuts in a steel frame?

I prefer to just buy adapter's from china. That way I don't risk the structural integrity of the frame. The adapter's basically just is ring shaped thing with m5 threads. It is very simple. Even I could make them with 3d printer.

10:26 After drilling the holes, before mounting the rivnuts, I used a large (1/2") drill bit turned a few times by hand to deburr the edges of the hole, otherwise the rivnut didn't look like it was seating closely against the tube. Also, if you have open crank bearings be careful that the metal chips from the drilling don't fall down into the bottom bracket and end up in your bearings. (Crunch, crunch... :-) I took the opportunity to overhaul my bottom bracket and had the crankshaft/bearings removed when I drilled the holes.

I have tried riding a bike with a full bottle on the mount, but the weight that splashed left and right inside the bottle really annoyed me. The weight is too low, and sometimes it seemed like there was side wind pushing me in one direction, but it was the water pulling me in that direction after a turn. I prefer keeping that weight high, on my back (with a backpack), be it a water bottle or a camel back.

Here are some tips to make it easier to install, at least from my experience. I used an Irwin Unibit step drill bit #1MT (16101) to drill out the hole without needing to change drill bits to 7mm, then use a slightly larger drill bit if needed to fit the rivnut. Also, I found that there was enough clearance, at least on my dad's bicycle to fit a Milwaukee M18 drill with the step drill bit. If you don't have enough clearance and don't have a right angle drill, you can use a much affordable right angle drill attachment, such as the DeWalt Right Angle Drill Attachment (DWARA050) and attach it to your existing drill.

This was great, thank you. Especially the homemade rivnut tool, and you tell all the sizes of accessories needed, drill bits, the M5, using painters tape to protect finish, etc. I need to attach an ebike battery to my downtube, and the water bottle mounts do not line up with the holes in the bracket, as my frame size is small, and the ebike battery bracket is designed for larger frame bikes. But, putting in a couple new rivnuts should solve the problem as I do have enough room for the bracket and clearance to unhinge the battery from the bracket. Thank you!!

I think I'd put some silicone caulk or some varnish on the rivnut before installing it. Won't prevent metal to metal contact, but will keep water out, much reducing the risk of corrosion.. Grease on the screws, too, for the same reason. I use loctite on screws for braze-on mounts, but for riv nuts, this would risk spinning the rivnut.

Maybe I'm overthinking it, but a stainless M5x30 is presumably softer than hi-ten. Also need to debur the hole. Planning to use JB Weld in the hole to seal it and help keep the rivnut from spinning down the road.

@vidiia
@vidiia 3 жыл бұрын
for anyone new in the comments wondering this: the riv-nuts are probably riveted in strongly enough not to fail, but in theory steel frame +aluminium riv-nuts would react galvanically to create a layer of aluminium oxide between them. in theory this would make the bond stronger but there's not much metal there so idk if it would do the same as how it works in seized stems/seatposts.
