Thanks, I did see those but discounted them as I need a frame and fork set.

I've got a load of frame bosses kicking around either new or from where I've replaced steel with ti. I can have a look to see if any don't have the shoulder.

@ishaw would you mind please? That would be fantastic if you can. I can swap my ti ones with the shoulder if they are any use to you.

I slept on it and realised grinding the shoulder off the posts won't work, as I'd then be left with a stud that was 2mm too long. And grinding the shoulder, cutting down the posts by 2mm and then trying to neaten the thread is more effort than I can face.

ah ... effort

picture this

I carefully place a unique part from my partner's hub gear system on the workbench.
Next evening I come back home to finish the repairs.
No part.
It's a small threaded clamp
I spend two hours scouring the workshop floor with headtorch and maglite.
I give up
I spend another hour making a new part

Two months later I am weeding the gateposts. They are old railway sleepers set in concrete so have the screw holes in them for rail baseplates.
Something catches my eye. The part is sitting in one of the holes. I ask my four year old 'do you recognise this?' when I held it out. 'Oh yes...I put it in the hole...'. Ah Ok.

I often get this kind of help from the family. I am clearly a lot meaner spirited than you as I quickly get to the “Has anyone touched Dads stuff?” Question.
