2011 cross check front derailleur clamp size

I need to replace the front derailleur on my 2011 cross check, and I am not sure what size the top tube is. i don't have a tool to accurately measure it, so I am hoping some kind soul with the same bike can tell me what size clamp to get.

I did look through the website, I have the 2011 catalog and while there are tons of frame dimensions, the seat tube outer diameter is not one of them.


thanks!!

some people get helpless & lazy with a computer to their work ..

wrap a piece of paper around it , mark where it wraps around , that is the circumference

use math to work from circumference to diameter its not tough to do
theres a website to show you how.




Generally steel frames have a 9/8" seat tube ..

now donate $20 to veterans for peace for the help.

The really awesome thing about this is that you don't even have to click a link in the search results. This is apparently now one of the things Google will just tell you.
