My seatpost clamp bolt on my controltech seatpost has ronuded off and it appears to be an m7 bolt.
anyone know where i can get an m7 ti bolt from?
Would you really want Ti there?
I know I wouldn't

Why not?
never had a seatpost clamp fail on you then?
I've had a steel one shear off on a layback a few years ago

No but is Ti more likely to fail over stainless or cromo?
I looked hard but couldn't find one either, but when/if you find one, please email me, as I want one for my I-Beam.
Cheers uplink. Thought there would be an endless discussion on the merits of ti vs steel when all i asked is a simple question of where i can get one from
Bugger, I need a shorter one...

Cutting ti bolts is a proper chore! Only did that once!

Put two nuts on the bolt and tighten together.
Hold nuts in a vice (fnarr)
Cut off unnecessary bit with an angle grinder
file end to remove burr
