Saddle clamp screw worn: where to get a replacement

[Jean77]

Hi guys

I have a Giant Anthem 2016 with a contact saddle and dropper post. The screw in the saddle clamp has worn and I can't seem to find a replacement clamp/screw. The local giant shop suggested getting a replacement seat post, but that seems a like a bit of overkill. Anyone have an idea where I can get a replacement or have suggestions for a workaround?

I have this clamp you are welcome to try. I don't have the bolt but have the thread/nut side.

With regards to the nut go to your local, bolts bearings and nut shop and see if they can make one. They could also potentially retap the threads on the clamp or bring them to the next size with an appropriate bolt.

Go to a Specialized store. They stock the different brackets to accommodate carbon rail saddles (these rails are oval, not round). The brackets come with the bolt. I’m pretty sure what works on the Specialized saddle posts will work on other posts.
