    the two different sets of spacers fit insode the seat tube clamp to thicken (or reduce) the clamp inside diameter. Use no spacers for 34.9, use one set for 31.8 and use both sets for the smallest diameter seat tube

    None for 34.9, thin pair for 31.8 and thick pair for 28.6.

    & don’t forget the plastic retainers that hold said spacers too.
