Tomato seat post clamp.

[livernose]

I am unfamiliar with this approach. Exactly what would I need to order? And what is the website address? Your help is appreciated. I don’t want to do the aluminum foil thing because this is going to be ridden and I don’t want to fool around if the seat goes sideways during a ride.

There’s a guy on the FB HG page named Christopher Berchin that says he has a tomato seat post clamp he says is too tight to use on any of his bikes and I’m thinking that’s the one I need. I made an offer to trade mine (that he could use on his bikes) or buy outright but no reply. He may have been pulling my leg. I don’t know.

OK, Christopher messaged me and said he is going to measure his clamp and get back with me. Maybe it will work out.

Christopher is a good dude. He posts on MTBR as CTB and was on here in the early days but I think just does the FB group now.

The external shim thing is definitely a little ghetto but I’m sure it would work fine. Hopefully you guys get it properly sorted though.

Christopher and I traded tomato clamps and it worked out for us both. My lose clamp works for him and his tight clamp works for me. Better having the clamps on bikes rather than sitting in a toolbox or drawer.
