Very stupid question but I checked twice and can't tell. Any idea where did this bolt come from?
I heard a metallic aound when riding and ignored it ofc cause I was in a hurry. After a while this bold hit my leg and the sound fixed itself so I guess it came from my bike. But from where?! Had to be front but I can see no bolt missing.
Help plx 🙂

Looks like a bottle cage bolt
I would assume some sort of mounting spot. My bike came with screws for all of them and they have dwindled over time. Worked their way loose and now belong to the trail.
Agree with the first poster. Looks like bottle cage bolt.
Feel so stupid now – that was it. It just got hit by rear wheel and flew forward. Sorry guys!
It looks like a mount bolt. Could be on the fork or on the frame. Is probably not a problem. If it’s from there, definitely not a problem if you have not added extra items on the bike.
i know it’s been answered but i usually just look around, brakes, stem, seat, dera, all the usual suspects. i also keep extras on the bike in case i need it for something.
Use loctite 242/243 on all threads ( water bottle cage bolts, rack bolts etc).
