Paul we used to use a hinged dia compe seat post clamp, with a load of electrical tape around the chainstay  :daumenhoch:
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
 Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
 Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
 Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'
