Goes completely against strength over weight savings but I've been rocking this for over 4 years now and it's been great so far. Even gives bonus points for carbon

Sadly the seatpost collar is a bit of an oddball size at 33.5 so my options are limited... I've since reached out to Cinelli-Milano online to confirm the replacement... I'm also flirting with the idea of replacing the seatpost configuration to a fastback design. I will definitely follow up the idea with a local builder to see what options are available with time and cost. I truly love the way the frame rides and being a pre engagement gift from my wife makes it deserving of this customization... I appreciate your input
After 4 years of use being the sole owner of my Vigorelli steel, the light weight seat clamp that came from factory in the box finally failed. It happened without any creaking sounds to indicate anything out of the norm. Maybe the cold weather of late combined with a preference of riding more seated in the wet. I guess Thomson would be the forever replacement... Or are there any other recommendations? I am favoring strength over weight savings.
In defense of the stock clamp, it had a scuff from a standing fall a few years back.
