This bike seatpost clamp is available in 28.6, 31.8, 34.9mm or 36.6mm sizes and comes in durable anodised black of silver. Please Note: The measurements listed in the sizing options are the internal measurement of each clamp. Each clamp is designed to clamp around to your bike's frame, so allow a few millimetres difference between your saddle seatpost and the clamp size you need. We recommend that you either measure your bike frame's seatube or check for any sizing information that may be stamped on your old clamp.
The lever is ergonomically shaped and the mechanism uses a brass bush to make sure it has a smooth and consistent action which will last. Tech Tip: To confirm what size you need, remove your existing clamp from the frame and measure the diameter across the top of the hole that the seatpost fit in to. Alternatively, sometimes your bike's seatpost clamp size is stamped on the existing seatpost clamp.
