Broken seat rail clamp.....can they be replaced?

Posted on
  • I have a really nice Easton seatpost and unfortunately the lower section of the seat rail clamp has broken (please see photos) and I'm unsure whether I'm going to have to ditch the seatpost altogether. I can't find any info on replacement clamps so I'm guessing they don't exist?
    I assume that seapost clamps aren't 'standard' and therefore I won't be able to use a clamp from another seatpost on the Easton? Any info would be very much appreciated. Cheers!

  • Indeed...you can replace it but not worth it...buy different seatpost....youll never know maybe it will happen again soon..

  • Thanks AlphaOmega, really helpful advice. I have actually had to buy a new seatpost just to keep me on the bike but it seems such a waste to ditch a really nice light seatpost. I thought I could keep it as a spare if I could get hold of another clamp. Any idea where you can buy the clamps?

  • No worries...this type of clamp is hard to come by even on ebay havent seen one...buy the whole seatpost which is in very bad condition you get lucky if you can get on ebay like i said better buy a different brand/seatpost there a few on the market that they're weight the same....

  • I think this is good advice and the idea of buying a hammered post on Ebay makes perfect sense. Somebody said that some of the the Shimano clamps were very similar/the same so you never know! Thanks again.......
