Those are T-Rex sliders, or at least copies of them.

They work great. (the originals at least have saved me lots of $ on my bike)

t-rex appears to be out of VTR sliders, see their web site. I asked the ebay t-rex seller and she asked me to try back in 4 weeks.
The copies look ok, they only need to work once, ask me how I know.

Lmao. Well, I'm pulling my frame sliders off since I don't like how they look (some pale yellow color) and one of them is bent...
So I need a to order a set of stock "bolt and nut thingys." All I should need is the bolts right?

I didn't like that the T rex were in my way so i ground off some of the underside with a bench grinder so that i could rotate them froward about 45 degrees and now i often push my knee against in turns. I do have padded knees though.

I have these exact sliders.
Although I fortunately have not tried them out, I will say that the bolts that come with them developed rusted heads after about 8 weeks, and I don't ride in the rain. Not real high quality, at least the bolts. They may be just fine if you paint them prior to installation.
I replaced the bolts with stainless allen head from the local hardware store. Done deal.
