Dear colleagues,
I've recently turned into the owner of Trek 520, year 1993 - nice bike! However, the seatpost (clamping) bolt is missing - the former owner used just a generic bolt and nut with a spacer. On my other steel frames, the clamps of this type has a "nib" (like a "nose", or a small tooth) which should fit in a special notch on a frame to prevent turning of the nut inside the frame. However, this frame has no notches of any type? and this puzzles me a bit.
Would it be possible, if somebody has Trek 520 1992/1993 around with original seatpost clamp, to make a photo of this mystical bolt? This will greatly simplify my search
Thank you in advance and have a good ride
M.
