  1. Anyone know what size seat post clamp fits the Lyte
    Rider/Wilder fork?

    The guy at the LBS measured the OD of the seat post at 28.6,
    but said that was going to be too tight. He recommended a
    seat post clamp at
    28.8mm and that 30mm was too big

    The Salsa Flip-lock doesn't come in a 28.8mm, ya'll
    using a 28.6?

  2. I know we used the Surly Constrictor on a Lite (Blue) frame
    so it must have been the smaller one (30.0), even though it
    sounds too big. Unless of course Scott changed the frame
    tubing size.

    However, if the bike shop guy measured the OD at 28.6, then
    just use the
    28.6 Fliplock. It may be a little work to get it on. If it
    doesn't go on easily by hand, you should be able to
    grease it, then tap it on gently with a lead shot hammer.
    You may push aside a little powder coating, but that's no
    big deal. It will get smushed anyway. Then you can clean
    off the grease and you're all set.

    The Fliplock works really really well on my Pashley, but I
    don't know how well it will grip with the aluminum frame.
