My saddle will not stay level in the clamp when I'm riding (the nose of the saddle usually rises up tipping me off the back of the bike) and I have to get off and re-level the saddle and tighten the clamp bolt after every couple of miles.
I took the bike into the shop and they had a look at it and pointed out that the groves on the clamp look quite worn; I've attached pictures to try and show this.
The fella in the shop reckons on a new seatpost. This will be reasonably expensive to replace as it's a carbon post.
Isn't it possible to buy a new clamp? Also, the the bike is only about 3 years old. Is there any reason it should have worn so quickly?
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
