Well, inevitable has happened – we’ve run out of replacement Double Rail Saddle Clamps at Flying Pigeon LA! Argh!

The stock seat post clamps that came with our bikes we not that great – they had a pretty high rate of failure. Last autumn the hunt was on, and we scoured bicycle parts wholesale houses in the U.S. to chase down as many of these as we could. The good news is that we were able to score several hundred from Wilson Bikes (in San Francsico) and Lexco Bike Parts & Accessories. The bad news is that we’ve finally run out of our supply, with no new source identified.

Consider this a cry for help: we need double rail saddle clamps. Badly. Brooks Saddles makes a version that retails for $25. We don’t need them that badly, but if you’ve got any leads, please send them our way (and we will follow them!). We need about 400 of these clamps – a nice big box or two.

Any tips or info, please call us at 213-909-8986 or call info@flyingpigeon-la.com
