Hi again,

Does anyone have a picture of what a Legnano seat binder bolt should look like?

This is for an early/mid 60s frame (?) with the bolt in front of the seat tube, without a split in the seat-tube

At present it has a bodged version made of two hand filed aluminium wedges with an ugly bolt that clamps them together against the post. It seem like a reasonable solution, if poorly executed, but I'd like to see what a real one should be.

Thanks,
