'63 Holdsworth Seat Bolt - Help Needed!

[GregMac]

Hi guys,

I'm in the middle of building up my first bike, and I'm struggling to find a seat post bolt to fit. It's a recessed Allen key type and I can't find any images of the original fitting, though at this point anything to get me on the road would be good.

If anyone could give me a lead on what the original bolt looks like or where I might be able to pick one up it would be hugely appreciated. Apologies for the lack of info!

Had the same issue with my 1951 Holdsworth so I just took it down to the bike shop - they had loads that fitted.

We used to have a box of seat bolts for just this occasion . The other good place is a shop that has a connection with frame building.
