All steel is stainless UV stabilized Zytel clamp (black)--easy on your frame finish Tool included No-hassle warranty -- If any part fails, I replace it. Sizing
The Jump Stop clamp is sized to match the outside diameter of your seat tube or derailleur post. It comes in three standard sizes. Small fits 1-1/8 inch or 29mm (28.6 nominal bare tube size, before added finish thickness) and these are rarely anything but steel frames. (Some earlier US bikes and recumbents used 1 inch tubing. I have shim material to adapt the small clamp to fit this size.) Medium fits 1-1/4 inch, or 32mm (31.8 nominal bare tube size) and these can be any frame material. Large fits 1-3/8 inch, or 35mm (34.9 nominal bare tube size) and these can be any material, though rarely steel. If the seat tube has a uniform diameter, then the Jump Stop clamp size should be the same as the front derailleur clamp size. If there is no size stamped on the front derailleur, or there is no front derailleur, the easiest way to determine seat tube diameter is to cut a strip of paper 4 inches (100 mm) in length, and wrap it around the seat tube. If the ends overlap by more than a quarter inch (7mm), it's probably 1-1/8 (29mm). If the ends just barely meet, it's probably 1-1/4 (32mm). If the ends have a gap between them greater than a quarter inch (7mm), it's probably 1-3/8 (35mm). If you have questions about how difficult it is to mount the Jump Stop, the instruction sheet is reproduced here. Purchasing
The Jump Stop is available through some
independent bike shops (primary US distributor is QBP) and is also
carried by some mail order outlets. But if you would like to
order direct, you can e-mail me at ngear@gvtc.com or call
(800) 659-4607 (toll free) or (830) 755-4607 (local or toll). I
will need to know what size you need and the destination postal
address. I don't require pre-payment, so if you would like to
confirm that the Jump Stop is the right guide for your bike, you are
welcome to try it out first to make sure it fits and does what you
want. Then you can decide whether or not to keep it. (If not,
just mail the parts back.)
