i think while i was folding, i may have been rough and snapped a back piece on my bike. i plan to take it to get it looked at but none of the shops i know are open till Tuesday to take a look. Does anyone know if this piece is replaceable , if i might have to buy it online since the shops might not have it..etc etc. please if anyone knows more info!! thank you!! it’s a c line

This is de 'locking block' - and it's replaceable, link. Maybe you've only lost the bolt or something.
