Found these in the workshop.

I seem to have two sets of pairs, but no idea what they are, nor which bike they came from...

Specialized use (have used) a similar style on some posts. USE I think. Quite a few others.

Had no idea!

I assumed they were some weird shock mount, but couldn't think which bike it was from...

Can safely bin now....

Still no idea which bike it came from...

Might be the Scott Spark RC - that comes with it's own special attachment for the seat tube to mount the saddle....

Aye. I'd guess other rail clamps off a USE Sumo post?

Quite a common part for carbon posts, and mostly cross compatible (I used the Richey branded ones above to mount a carbon railed saddle to my PlanetX seat post)

I was just about to say they look the same as my Ritchey post
