Has anyone tried taking the clamp off to replace with another?

We have not received any news of our customers removing the clamp from the head. We also would not recommend it as it will more than likely affect the functionality of the ballhead.

turn the clamp lever clockwise 1 turn and try it. if that isn't enough try another turn.

Yes. The replacement kit worked great but it took 3 hours to change it out. YouTube it. Good luck!

yes , I changed it our five time the problem is the threads in the clamp need be chased with a 5/15 24 die nut. or buy the whole clamp.

You would have to cut them off or spring oped the clamp which may not close again after.

You should be able to tighten that clamp. To do this, first unclamp it, then turn the knob on opposite end of clamp clockwise. Then try clamping it again. You should be able to turn that knob with your hands, if not you can use pliers.

Not that I know of. I've simply replaced the line myself. It's not that difficult to do.

I do not know if there is one or if it would be reasonable to do so, especially if you pay someone else to do the replacement. I would guess that it is not possible.

I remember this happened to me, too. what I did was to pull out as far as I can then cut the tape off and snapped it in to replace the old one. It got to be a better way to handle it but I couldn't find instruction any about it so that how i did it.

Yes I have. No success fixing it. Also had the handle break off. Haven't been able to get through to manufacturer after many attempts. Sorry, I can't help

Not by itself, but if you add a zip tie around the clamps it works nicely. Amazon sells zip ties for as little as $1.38 per 100 count. Hope this works for you. It does for me.

I emailed the company at sales@radcycleproducts.comThe clamp that holds the vertical tube broke and they sent me a replacement right away. I just needed to send a picture of the broken part and a copy of my invoice.

Sorry, can't help you on the unscrewing the handle for replacement but the handle on mine is aluminum so likely won't need to be.

Yes, use a small socket wrench on the nut in the clamp. I did the exact same thing and it will tighten up.
