I wonder, titanium seatpost clamp, 28.6mm: does it make sense? is it too fragile for 28.6mm? if not, does this exist? where to find/buy one?
When you say seat tube needs to be filed, do you mean reamed and squared at the top?
Also, what do you mean by “there is no seat post tube”? Like a sleeve or shim inside of the seat tube?
