Hi WWs
A friend just ordered a bontrager paradigm xxx(or is it rxl) seat with carbon rails. He's currently on a metal rail bontrager seat that I am quite sure does come with oversized rails. Possibly it's a standard rail size.
Ar standard rails 7mm in diameter?
His seat mast (no seat post - trek domane) must then have a clamp that only fits regular circular rails.
Because we don't have easy access to bontrager parts wher we live (china) I was thinking to ask you if it were possible to dremel the flanges of the grooves a bit to accept an oversized rail like a 7x10?
What's your experience with this? I'd love to hear it. Thank you!

Has anyone successfully modified a saddle clamp to take oversized rails?

Yes, I have modified Tune seatpost using a round file. The seat carriers now fit a Tune Komfort saddle rails.
