  • I'm not sure this is an appropriate question for a Q&A site like this. It's likely to generate opinions rather than answers. Nonetheless, here's one approach: youtube.com/watch?v=7Ei8Kt2bfEE

  • Cheers for the video link. I've never seen a stand like that. Going to see if I can find one. Also, blasting with a pressure washer that close.... not in a million years Commented Feb 5, 2018 at 21:58

    Question seems straightforward and objective: Can I clamp a CF seatpost in a bike repair stand? Are there products that make it possible/safer? Commented Feb 5, 2018 at 22:33
  • @JamesPeterMcConnell GCN did a test and found it's actually pretty difficult to get water into bearings with a pressure washer. Their test wasn't entirely realistic but they didn't get any water in a bottom bracket bearing after pressure washing it for a minute and a half at close range. But your concern is completely rational. Commented Feb 5, 2018 at 23:33
