E erb Dirt Disciple Jun 11, 2009 #1 Hi if I have a 29.6mm seat post tube, can you tell me what size clamp I need please? If you're nice I will post some before & after picks of my C16R circa 97. Not that retro but 'in keeping' build.

A Anthony Retrobike Rider Jun 12, 2009 #4 I think the seat tube on the C16R is a 31.8 and it doesn't have external butting, so you need a 31.8 clamp (i.e., one that measures about 33mm)
