Or if not what's another good 29.8mm qr clamp for my 456 SS?

Got a 30.0 Identiti one on there now and it's hard to get it really secure.

I wouldn't bother if I were you. They're crap. Get the On-One CNC clamp. Waaay better! 🙂

Ive got a 30 identi one on mine and it was not a problem. Do you want QR?

I'll qualify my remark -

The Woodman uses a plastic pivot/shim part, which deforms when you clamp it down and doesn't exert enough force to clamp the post well enough, meaning it slides down slowly over the course of a ride.

The On-One doesn't. Just a brass washer, and I only need to have mine done up snugly rather than tightly to keep the post in place. Same frame, same post, same rider.....

£10, the CNC one, 2nd one down on this page

hmm - ok thanks folks. Yeah qr.

On one sounds good ta. Loathe to pay £4 postage for a seat clamp though. 🙄

Jejames had them after all so I got one despite your advice. 😛

Will get an on-one when this breaks - £7.86 versus £14 odd was too much of a difference - and I've never broken a seatclamp!
