Title: Bolt and nut needed for a suntour seatclamp?
Post by: factory pilot on September 12, 2015, 02:52 PM: Hi lads, need some help...

What size bolt and nut do I need for the classic Suntour seatclamp... Mine have perished ?

Anyone one got one they'd sell me or are these stock parts that I can get from eBay?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Cheers Ant

Thats actually what I ended up doing!

There are also a couple of Aussie shops that sell them, www.oldschoolbmx.com.au is one of them
