2nd ride out on my new to me Pitch and the front mech wouldn't shift up. Turns out the mech had come loose, so I stopped to reposition it and tighten it up but stripped the thread in the mounting bracket 🙁

Question is what is the correct name for the front mech mount and where can I get one? It's the thing in the pic below.

You need a DMD adaptor. It's to fit an e-type mech with the BB plate removed.

I needed to get one for an epic frame I picked up that didn't have one fitted.

Local Spesh dealer ordered one in - took 2 days, was about £7

Cool, so they are available to buy.
I'm going to struggle to get to a Spesh dealer this week, I was hoping I could get one online somewhere.

I've put a longer bolt in for now but I can't see it holding for long.

Yeah, def available to buy.

I'm sure I saw someone on here selling one a few months back - might be worth a search and e-mail to see if they still have it?
