I got a No 33, which fits 31-34mm (Sam's downtube is 32.3mm, iirc). I taped the inside surface of the clamp with 3M packing tape and it held securely and didn't mar the paint. Inner tube might work, but it might be too thick or might slide around. On Friday, August 14, 2015 at 5:54:52 PM UTC-4, Lungimsam wrote: Arthur: Which size did you get?

I got one of the clamp on mounts from ebay (Moose Racing). Currently I've got my Sam set up as a 1x9 with a single Paul thumbie on the stem, but when I had it rigged as a 2x9, I put a single layer of 3M packing tape on the inside of the Moose Racing clamp, then mounted it to the downtube using the brazed on cable stops as backstops. Silver/Dia Compe shifters or Dura Ace downtube shifters work work great.

Personally I would suggest mounting them to the stem. No reason to scratch up up your bike, and thoroughly Riv approved aftermarket equipment. -Dave On Tuesday, August 11, 2015 at 10:33:21 AM UTC-4, Lungimsam wrote: If I want to try DT shifters on my blue Sam, how do I do that without tearing up the paint on the DT with a boss clamp?

Properly applied, clamp-on dt shifters bosses won't mar your paint. On Tue, Aug 11, 2015 at 6:00 PM, Dave Johnston jdi...@gmail.com wrote: Personally I would suggest mounting them to the stem.
