Oh, that's true. I guess it was what I thought he want.

In other news, slamming your stem faceplate, slamming your rear dropouts, slamming your 1 inch threadless steerer tube

Long story short, use parts that fit.

If this is a hand built frame -- and it certainly appears to be -- the slot may well have been cut with a single hacksaw blade (I usually use 2 two blades in one handle, but that's just me). The slot is not fully closed. The seat post appears to be securely clamped. Where's the problem?
