Cervelo R3 seat collar broke
Hi I'm looking for some advice on replacing my seat post collar. The OEM one broke and I have read that these are of poor design. So I want to replace it with a different one, that has a better fastner.
My question is what materials can I use for the carbon R3 frame and 3T seatpost so not to damage them?
I'm looking at the Salsa lip lock?
Thanks

Both of my carbon frames use fairly generic seat post collars. This one by Miche claims to be specifically designed for carbon frames if that makes you feel any more secure: https://www.universalcycles.com/shopp...5&category=168

I use the Miche and have found it to hold very securely with very little tightening.
