I have a litespeed firenze. I'm changing my front derailleur... is 31.8 the right diameter for the clamp? that seems small but they don't offer it in a larger size?

You're probably using a 27.2 seatpost. oops, update - see next post. 31.8 is NOT correct. TurboTurtle 04-12-2005, 09:50 AM I think 31.8 is correct. You're probably using a 27.2 seatpost. According to the web site it takes a 31.6 seat post. Measure it. Wrap a piece of string around it. Measure the string. Divide by 3.14. - TF Looncey Legstrong 04-12-2005, 01:09 PM thanks... I measured it and divided by 3.14 and it comes out to 35. I searched a little more and found some front derailleurs with 34.9mm clamps... so those must be the ones. I appreciate it. I remember 3.14 is pie. Never thought i'd ever use that for anything. I guess if I added all those other digits that come after 4 it'd probably be 34.9. |
