Where to clamp bike stand clamp on bikes with long seat tubes

My bike is a BH G7. The bike has a VERY long seat tube (see image below). The way I have my bike setup is the seat post does not extent very much out of the seat tube.

I do not like clamping the clamp from the bike stand on the seat tube for fear of crushing it. But there is not enough seat post sticking out of the frame to use the clamp on.

Anyone have any suggestions? Or am I ok clamping on the seat tube? Don't I need to worry about cracking the carbon?

Thank you.



(Note, while this is a picture of my bike, this is NOT my bike...If that makes any sense)
