Nut's, bolts, and washers available from local hardware store, B&Q, homebase, etc...
Seals would be from a bike dealer. or you could try Alpha-sports
to find the correct part.

Hope this helps

not necessarily the best place, but certainly a useful source of odds and ends is Screwfix. They do a small selection of stainless nuts bolts washers, plus things like cable ties etc.

Ron Ayers' online microfiche is excellent for getting the official part numbers...

Just tried Alpha-Sports Richie1743, they seem massively expensive to me!

Don't muck about with the nuts and bolts homebase sell, they're absolute cack... They work OK but they're not well protected and start to corrode the second they're exposed to the real world. Handy in an emergency but not much more.
