Kudos, Fred, my order is on the way, with my thanks for doing this. Meantime, wrt Jerry's question, using the uncertain method of interpolation of serial numbers from the Cinelli roster, I have inferred that mine is a 73 or 74. It has the allen key fitting. but, it may not be original. harvey sachs mcLean va

Nice work. There is an older type bolt, like came on my 1973 (or maybe 1972) Windsor Pro, which copied the Cinelli seat attachment. Rather than an allen head, it had a protruding hex nut for a regular box end wrench. Pretty sure genuine Cinellis had the same bolt. Anyone know when Cinelli switched to allen head?

These are NOT genuine Cinelli bolts, but hand made copies. I had originally manufactured one for my Raysport. These are handmade and are stainless steel, polished and each individually fitted to my Raysport. The $16.99 price includes shipping and will include two styles of bolts.
