Hi John/all, yes mine are made for recessed, as the shafts are factory machined & also the correct length for recessed. Yes all other hardware is alloy, just the recessed nuts appear to be chrome plate. Does anyone know of Ti recessed nuts being made, I'm sure some one has, or even a Ti seat binder bolt. I could easily make alloy ones, but I'd prefer the strength of alloy......regards wayne davidson Invercargill
