Where to find cheap reliable seat clamp?
For A small piece and forged metal with a hole for screws and some paint, how much could that cost? Or so I thought when my bike shop quoted me 40$. I will just get one myself.
Sure enough, when I search online, all I see is ~30$. Is there not a no frizzle clamp that just get the job done?
I need size 30.0 mm for 27.2mm seatpost

Sure you don't need a 31.8 for a 27.2 post? If so there are tons to choose from on eBay.

This one is $12 including shipping in the size you requested. You might even find cheaper if you look harder.

I think OP may be mistaken on the size he needs.
From OP:
From the Amazon page (which offers two size options) :
From OP:
I need size 30.0 mm for 27.2mm seatpost
From the Amazon page (which offers two size options) :
- For 25.4mm/ 27.2mm Seatpost
- 28.6mm clamps fit 25.4mm seatposts; 31.8mm clamps fit 27.2 seatposts

mechanically sound
Your current clamp should have a size written on it somewhere. Alloy BMX clamps are a good bet. I have a cheap Haro on my road bike- clamps like a champ
