ok this is ridiculously unclear. looking to add the Tubus Clampset for mounting a carrier on seat stays without eyelets and you need to specify the desired lenght:
Art.-No: 71614, for 14 mm (diameter of the seat stays)
Art.-No: 71616, 16 mm
Art.-No: 71618, 18-19 mm
Art.-No: 71621, 21-22 mm
Art.-No: 71624, 24-25 mm
i just measured the diameter of the stays, by cutting a piece of wrapped isolation tape exactly to length so that it goes perfectly around the stay and measured the tape with ruler. ruler says length of tape is 40mm so whats going on. surely the mercian (531) above doesnt have unusually wide seat stays. has anyone here used these and found this weird too or am i being really stupid.
