My seat on my mountain bike is slipping, what I mean is that the place where the rails are attached to the post is made to swivel for proper adjustment, but I can't tighten it enough to keep my weight from making the seat angle upwards when I sit down.
There are grooves on the post and on the plate that sits on it, and they've become smooth for some reason. I tried to file in some new grooves, but that didn't have any effect.
What can I place between the post and the plate that attach the seat to keep it from slipping? Maybe I need a new/better seat post.
The plate on the table is upside down, it is the part that sits on the post.
I used a Vivitar 28-200 macro zoom to take the pics. You can see how it shows a green halo around the bright areas.
