Why would it not work? My basso has seat clamp bolt through the seatstays (though a little higher up) and it works fine.
Personally I think the above looks very elegant, but if it doesn't work then clearly it is shit. But why would they build it like that if it doesn't work?
edit- so do those ugly alu clamps that sit on top make uniform circumferential tension with no bending stiffness?
