Just bought an Epic which takes a 34.9mm seat clamp. My old Salsa quick release doesn't fit and I want a new one to match my skewers as well as possibly a clamp but they are only made in 35mm. Will this 0.1mm difference mean my seatpost will keep slipping, its a Thomson by the way in case that matters?
chances are the machining tolerances allow for maybe +/- .1mm anyway, give it a try but if it doesnt work you could always try filing the inside of where the skewer passes through to open it out so it`ll compress more. just a thought.
Went and bought the Salsa clamp not QR and it doesn't work, seatpost spins with not a huge amount of force but the Specialized quick release holds both the stock seatpost and my shimmed Thomson tight.
Back to the shop with it, guess I will just have to get a Hope one instead.
