hi

i have bought a selle italia thoork team edition saddle with carbon rails and a ritchey wet white wcs alloy 1 bolt seatpost.

when i tried to fit the saddle it appears that it wont fit because the carbon rail has a squared profile yet the seatpost looks more suitable for a round profile rail. :(

Am i missing something or are they just not compatible?

is there any way i can get them to fit as they are both great looking items.

thanks

    I had the same problem with carbon rails on a carbonio. Almost sold the thing on Ebay until i found..... Ritchey one bolt seatpost carbon rail clamp, you can get them from Wiggle for around about £10

    I've still got the packet but it doesn't give the size, one is for carbon rails and the other is for carbon/Ti rails so i'm guessing that i bought the carbon rail clamps.
