Manual says M24 = 36mm, so I bought one from Halfords only to find it's too big. Measured nut and it's 34mm. Should have measured first.

Thankfully - there is room under the seat for the 34mm socket and T-bar.

Be careful there, when putting my ratchet back recently I inadvertently blocked the hinged hook that releases the seat. Had to damn near dismantle the whole rear end to get it out.... Most wont be as stupid as me of course, but its worth knowing.
