seat fastener

[trvlr]

in my 30yrs of riding, I've never known anyone or personally experienced someone lifting a seat off a bike. Has anyone actually heard of a seat being taken off someones bike?

I can't imagine walking up to my bike and seeing the seat missing...would make for an interesting ride back home for sure.

thanks for the tip, I,m tired of riding around with this big honkin screwdriver in my trunk.

By the way, there is a key hole "mid rear fender that is a 2nd location where a retention insert and c clip go. Now you can either move the full size saddle insert or buy a new insert of the modest sum of $6 and you swap your saddle style for solo or 2 up operation, how cool is that (LOL):newsmile100:....

To make install easy, use a medium sized zip ty and thread it through the insert, then the sharp tip feed it between the tire and fender until you can poke the works through and then use your free hand to pick up the c clip you dropped just out of reach and snap it in... :newsmile040:
