> The only NOS seatpost binder bolt I have seen on ebay was

> grinding wheel was going the long way on the binder bolt,
> not the crosscut direction. I hope this explaination is

> I also have the wedge style that was described in another

> For the record I am the original owner of a 1973 Peugeot
> PX10 , a 1988 Eddy Merkx Corsa SLX, and 2003 Lemond Zurich
> (Reynolds Pro 853 Tubing) as well as the second owner of
> the above mentioned Legnano and a Gios Torino Pista bike
> circa 1974 (NR/SR all original).

> Love My Legnano.
