Yep, didn't tighten them well so lost three Campagnolo Record chainring bolts, Torx 30, for square taper carbon crankset, .

Replaced chainrings and was going to tighten them properly when the crankset was mounted. Forget and went for a ride etc.

Looking for replacements and not averse to getting aftermarket bolts if Campagnolo bolts are prohibitively expensive.

Will 11 speed bolts work?

Will aftermarkets be OK? Hidden bolt is still there.

Thanks in anticipation.

11 speed bolts wil not work if memory serves. Those thread directly into the rings.

My first-gen-11sp Chorus cranks have normal bolts/nuts.

For a square taper crank with a 110mm or 135mm BCD, I believe that any standard chainring bolts will work. Even SRAM bolts.

Thanks, sounds good to me.

If anyone has any original Campagnolo Torx bolts they need to offload, I'll consider them before I go the aftermarket route.

I don't need to offload them. But I have a set of new FSA torx bolts in black for a double. It's all 5 in a kit.

11s ones from 2011 will work as they are 2 parter, like the ones you have. Athena ones also, just no 'campagnolo' written on them..

shops that 'qui si parla Campagnolo' has them...

How much dollars for them? Much?

$8 per nut/bolt, black..plus shipping. Since you are 'down under', I would think you could find something there-no?

Is there a difference in metal between Athena and Record, steel vs aluminium perhaps?

I'll inquire in my home town, but am constantly amazed that I can get better deals from US including shipping. The LBSs here price Campagnolo gear as if it was made of gold. In 2006 I remember seeing a pair of new Chorus 10 speed levers displayed in a glass case for $650 AUD!
