A lot of water and dirt goes into the...
The rear wheel when going through the puddles is splashing the area of the seatpost a lot of water and mud. This dirty water drips down and seeps into the frame through the slot in the seat clamp. It seems incredible but that's the way it is in many bike models. This water with mud drains from inside the frame until it reaches the bottom bracket and its bearings, destroying them after several kilometers. We have seen bikes (for example the Cannondale Scalpel) with the bottom bracket filled with water, and the bearings making mud crusher.
That is why we have brought to TiendaMTB.com this seat clamp that incorporates a rubber seal and a skirt to prevent the entry of water that filters through the seat closure, both on the edge, and especially on the vertical slit of the frame . Without a doubt, it is an essential item for those who ride through places where puddles are common.
