If you buy Bullseyes today, they come with six washers a pully, so you can go up to three a side to fit your existing bolts. Three were needed for the extra wide Simplex pulley's I replaced. It seems to be working fine, so far. I ordered these before I noticed that Harris Cyclery had gen-u-wine Simplex NOS pulleys for sale. Now we'll wait and see how long the Bullseyes last. And of course I'm saving all that energy due to the ball bearings--- :-)
