  1. If a seat post clamp's size is listed in English units, is it still
    going to fit OK on a frame designed for it's metric counterpart? Will
    it need some extra muscle/grease to get it on there?

    eg-1 1/8 inch seat post clamp on a 28.6mm OD neck of a frame.

  2. Google says: "1.12500 in = 28.57500 millimeters"

    The difference between 28.575 and 28.600 is about 0.09%

    Let's put this in perspective. Say you were driving from San Francisco
    to New York, and by some horrible error, you missed your destination by
    0.09%.

    You'd only be off by about two miles... more or less, you'd still be in
    New York.

    Short answer: you're fine to use the 1 1/8 clamp.
