PBSF mounting on seat stay?
Already have a PBSF mounted on my seat post. Wanted to add one to a seat stay, but having trouble on my Madone 4.5. The cross-section of the stay is rectangular, not round. Neither of the included brackets will work.
I thought about using the seatpost bracket and using something as a filler (like rubber tubing). Anyone tried this? If so, what did you use as a filler? Is there a different (better) solution?
Thanks!
Tony

use more than one rubber shim, use scissors for the thinner shim.

if the small one doesn't fit with no shims, then I suppose that's the only way.

I now have one on the seat post and one on the stay. Anlges are slightly offset to give better coverage back there.
