Hi,
Quick question as I've never had this problem before. When I tighten the clamp enough to keep the seat post in place the clamp pops up off the frame, releasing the seat post - not ideal you might agree.
Bike is brand new so stock size post/clamp. Clamp isn't quick release, seat post is an Ritchey alu one and frame is carbon.
I'm thinking its probably the clamp that's the weak link here? I know you can get different clamps depending on whether seat post is alu or carbon - but does a carbon bike frame add further restrictions?
Thanks.
