So after all the drama Ive had with my bike (vandalized front tire, Bonnie not running because it was out of gas), I finally have time to post up a set of Seat Bolt Extensions I made out of grip tape and and common hardware.
We've all seen the ones you can get for close to over $30.
After pondering this idea for months, I was able to come up with a simple solution. And I can't believe it took me this long to think about it. Below is a picture of said item.
The hardware I got from Lowes.
You will need the following:
2 bolts...size M6 x 80mm
2 locking nuts (the ones with the nylon inside)...size M6
grip tape
Its pretty self explanatory...spin locking nuts on until you reach the end of the threads
Wrap grip tape around the bolt to for grip. If I had access to a lathe to put knurling on them I would have.
That's it
Total cost....less than $5
And final product...on the bike...securing my seat really good:
