As long as you have the allen bolts removed on both sides then there is nothing else holding it together.

Brute force time.

This is what's confusing me - there's only one Alan bolt, the clamp just wraps right around.......

It's gone all loose........ Still won't come off though.  Scuse thickness, but have I sort of got to force the clamp over the rails by spreading the jaws of the post?
