I'm considering what I can do to lock it in place and epoxying everything together is one alternative. I know that the CPSC has sent a copy of my complaint to Argon, and I've had my own email exchanges with them. I'm waiting for a reply to my last email Argon and also for the CPSC to tell me how Argon replies to them before I alter the seat clamp on my own. I also agree, as an engineer I wouldn't be happy selling the bike to someone else.
