Just to warn all Pro-Connect owners that i feel you should replace a part on the bike ASAP before it lets you down when you least need it.
On monday i finished my commute to work and readjusted my seat alittle.
When tightening the seat clamp, the bolt on the seat clamp sheared off through the bolt and the clamp too.
I had to leave the bike at work and catch the bus to a local bike shop and get another seat clamp, catch the bus back to work, fit it and then ride home.
All after a night shift.
Got home for 10am. Off work 7am.
When I took the clamp and bolt to the local bike shop and they looked at it, they said it was a very cheap seat clamp and of very poor quality.
Be warned its better to get one now before you suffer the same fate as me.
I got a good quality one for under £10, but a £5 will outshine the one you have presently on the Pro-Connect.
I think that Kalkhoff have made a big mistake on an essential part for such a expensive bike.
Anyone else had that same issue with this or other small parts?
Regards Bob
