Is there a standard gauge to use when safety wiring a bike?

Thanks,
Mike

I have a vague recollection that to be legal you need at least .024". I like sturdier, such as .032".

If you do not already have one, buy a quality safety-wire pliers, such as Lockhart-Phillips. A vice grip works, but it is a miserable process.

The racers should be one in a bit - differ to them. :)
