When I purchased my 74 Raleigh International, it was fitted with a
Campagnolo quick release seatpost binder bolt (curved skewer). I can't
locate any information as to whether or not this might have been OEM or even
period correct. Come to think of it, I can't think of another bike I have
seen with one of these in use. Is this just an undesirable part that
people swapped out in favor of a typical fixed binder bolt? If so, why? Or
do I have something rare on my hands?
