I’ve managed to lose a buckle off my bont mtb shoes and no one has the spares. Wholesaler hasn’t replied to my email.

I’ve now got a buckle that will work but not the nut which was flat on the inside of the shoe so as not to rub.

Does anyone know what this would be called (not captive?) where I might get one and how to measure the bolt to know the required size? It’d be a shame to have to bin nice shoes.

Just popped in to see a cute squirrel holding its nuts.

I feel let down.

Possibly a tee-nut? There may be something similar that holds the ratchets onto a snowboard binding.

The bont spares refers to t nuts but they seem to be for the cleats.

Can you post a pic?

so the wholesaler doesn’t have them until november and won’t supply me direct then.

Can’t do pics easily but I think its to fit a short m3 bolt and like the tee nuts that come up on ebay but without the prongs.
