Fitting SMP seat to Scott Addict RC
So my new Addict RC has a D shaped seat post with thee Syncros seat post and clamp. The clamp is meant for a standard seat, not the oval type of post on the SMP. Does Scott/Syncros, or any aftermarket company make an option, either a new seat post or just the clamp, that will allow me to use my SMP saddle?

Doesn't look like it in your pic, but Syncros website says of their current seatposts:
"Proven Syncros clamp design for ease of adjustment. Compatible from 7x7mm up to 7x10mm rails, carbon rails inclusive"
So maybe try it, and/or contact the company. Often clamps are available for 7x9mm rails.
