Not really I think theres more to it then just a quad clamp.

It's just the quad clamp. The rest of the stuff you need comes with your threadless headset.

eh andrew told me a feature that it had which doesnt seem like it could work with just a quad clamp but i dont really know

 

[me1]

Edited out. Andrew doesn't want us revealing too much. But yes, you were absolutely correct.

 

[kolbycrouch]

^ although i know almost nothing about this but andrew said it had this feature, and it seems like that would work well on that so thats prolly what its like to some extent

so your spending $65 on a quad clamp? there are tnt style quad clamps for less than that.

 

[humpurple kushiones]

i thought that it would be like a smaller clamp at the bottom like a seatpost clamp compression and the rest of the clamp clamps the bars

 

[Chris Harris]

when is it going to be released

 

[Joe Riley]

whats the point of the quad clamp when the slits dont go that high anyways?

 

[conordavidson]

It's not just a basic quad clamp, there's more to it. However, the only part of the compression is the clamp and what comes with your threadless headset, nothing more. You can't use bars with slits in them with this compression system, but it won't matter considering that you'll have to cut your bars down about 2 inches to run them at correct height.

so i was right?

 

[Matt]

what are the sizes though? like will they be made to fit buffs or one pieces? and will you have to stretch them to fit buffs?

 

[conordavidson]

hahaha, you couldn't stretch these clamps if you tried. They'll fit everything, don't worry about it.

 

[nickdonatelli]

idk a whole lot about this clamp but im going to take a guess at it..hmmm ima guess it locks onto the fork and bars? so that way theirs no need for compression bolts..or am i way wrong?

 

[humpurple kushiones]

thats what i was thinking

 

[kolbycrouch]

not trying to spoil it but you will be able to change your bar height, thats what andrew told me, sorry for releasing this almost meaningless info but i figured it wasnt much and he was pretty reluctant to tell me so i dont think he cares

 

[humpurple kushiones]

really!? omg i have to get one of these!

 

[Joe Riley]

now i must have it.

No, I'm pretty sure you can't. That'd be like sliding your bars up higher on your fork and clamping them and saying your raising your bar height. Doesn't make sense.

 

[Joe Riley]

alright, nevermind.

One end of the clamp is 1-1/8" the other is bar size most likely 1-1/4". In between the two different diameters is a divider plate with a hole in it for the bolt that goes into the star nut.

Thats my guess.

Actually forget the divider plate. As long as the clamp is a different diameter you could just use the cap that comes with the headset since it can rest on the lip where its reduced to 1-1/8".
