Allright so check it..
Ive been riding this Stolen etrain frame for about six months now. and i hate the built in seatclamp! Always letting my seat slip, ( yes i like to sit on my bike sometimes). Anyways since i didnt have pivitol i decided to buy the Stolen S.I.C. post and The NICE hemp seat, and i must say the S.I.C. system works great! i got the 135mm so i can sit,
But my Question is, should i cut off this ugly clamp and extra seattube? any suggestions to getting a straight cut at the right angle would be great? I was thinking i could mark it out at the angle i want and hit with the tabletop chopsaw?
lemme know what you think? im doing it this weekend and ill post pics of whatever i do so let the ideas flow.

after much consideration, and my limitations with a table mounted chop saw, an angle grinder and a couple files are about the extent of my tools.. i could have easily cut it like easternbmx55,(thanks for the pics and comments by the way). but since im running the stolen SIC post i wanted it like the STOLEN CHEATER.. But the integrated seatpost clamp was hitting the fence on my chopsaw. so i stripped down to the frame and mounted it in a vice an cut the clamp off off with an angle grinder by hand ( made a sweet key chain later on)
so then i got it all blocked up in my chopsaw jig and cut it PERFECT!!! SO stoked! Pics below
