Almost 1000 miles on my 29 since I got it and now I am having trouble keeping the wind wing glass in the clamps. I have been thru the re-clamo process 3 times now.
I find the knurled screw fittings to be of poor quality. They jam easily in their threaded holes so it is not easy to get the clamps tight before you tighten the screw. Maybe I've got it OK now, the 3rd time, but I'd be interested to know how those of you have solved this problem. Yes, the metal fittings are brand new a month ago.
