Hello folks, I just wanted to check if there are any alternates to the inner seat clamp for the Precede:ON CF 8.
The part in question is "Canyon GP7048-01 Seatpost Clamp", listed here:
https://www.canyon.com/en-fi/gear/bike-parts/spare-and-wear-parts/spare-wear-parts/canyon-gp7048-01-seatpost-clamp/10007891.html
Besides the cost of around 50 euros (with VAT + Shipping), the build quality of the Canyon one is low in my opinion, as the component to which the screw attaches to has lost its threading. I do move the seat heigth a couple of times a month, with care of course.
If not the same part, what are my other options? I would like to move the height a few times a month, when my wife rides the bike.

To add to the post. I did contact the customer care and they said it is not covered in the warranty and were not very helpful. Hence this post.
I doubt anyone other than Canyon would bother making this. They wouldn’t sell nearly enough to make a profit considering how proprietary the part is. Are you using a torque wrench to tighten it to 7-8nm?
