Yes, indeed! I've never seen one of those clamps before, but it appears to be a fine one for sure.Originally Posted by Grand Bois

For $34 it better be the "nicest" clamp. But I still say the finest of clamps are harvested off vintage rides gone to pasture.

Yes! I had a really nice one I "harvested" of off an old french bike, was steel, chrome, and micro adjustable.
Ohhhh French.....mmmmmm......I gleaned from the winnowing floor of our LBS an Ideale branded clamp.....went home and gifted to my Brooks Swallow, they make such a nice pair.

I've bought at least 6 Brooks saddles since the late 1960s and none of them have ever come with a clamp. Should I complain to Brooks, and if I did what do you think they're likely to say?Originally Posted by slowtostart
Gentleman, my other new Brooks saddles came with clamps. My confusion arises from this discovery. No need to be so harsh.
