Ritchey Stubby Seatclamp advice?

[weeracerweenie]

im looking for a clamp on the ritchey stubby posts that will take a oval rail. currently running a specialized romin saddle at 230gms and looking to run a speedneedle saving 100 and something grams. I have NO idea where to even look to buy these. alternitevly what other options do i have? i was contemplating a custom build which doesnt seem to hard. WHats everyones thoughts??

I think the Ritchey stubbies are universal fitting, meaning you buy aftermarket bits allowing the fitting of a saddle with oval rails. These items are shown on the Ritchey website.

For oval rails you need the "fizik" type clamp.

Will a Tune Cappy fit your seat post?
If setback is not needed a Tune Cappy will fit a Tune Speedneedle.

your guess is as good as mine, im riding an addict r1 with a 30mm external diametre seat tube if it helps?

Anyone that sells ritchey may have it or order it for you.

I believe you can also order it directly from Ritchey's web site. I did two years ago. I have a Selle Italia Kit Carbonio saddle w/oval rails and needed to get the other clamp. However, as a light weight alternative take a look at the Woodman. I've been pleased w/it. Weighs about 86 grams (versus the 136g for the Ritchey). I had to file the grooves a bit to fit the oval size on the Kit Carbonio but that was easily done and it works great.

Come to think of it, I have my Ritchey clamp that I can sell you. PM me if interested.
