I think I'll have to pay more attention when checking my bike over before heading to work! This crank is obsolete now so I'm hoping I can find a new bolt somewhere
I'm a bit alarmed that this happened without me noticing!

Those bolts look fairly standard, no?
Same crank as I have on my Peugeot.
It's happened to me before. My bike developed a squeak that was driving me insane, I checked it all over and sure enough there was a missing chainring bolt that was causing it. Must have cycled a good few miles on it too before I found out.
Unfortunately the random spare chainring bolt I have in my toolbox is for a double, otherwise I'd offer it you.

what do the bolts hold, they look like they 're for a second chainring?
do they actually support the crank to teh chainring?

Actually that's a point, I might have one you can have. If you measure up what you need, I will have a look for you when I get in.
They attach the chainring to the crank.

The hole is 10mm across. I've asked my Bike Doctor if he has a spare as I need to replace it in time for Monday's commute
Very kind of you though!

Headstand helps focus, you get used to 'features' like that with an Android phone.

I'm not sure what the issue is here.
You kicked the tyres, right?
And nothing seemed wrong, right?
So... your problem is?
I'd glory in the added lightness of that new chainring-attachment method.
That'll be worth anything up to nearly a second the next time you commute with appropriate fury.
Next!

No probs, hope you get it sorted. I've got some spares if you end up struggling.
