Exotic Carbon Front Derailleur Clamp - MTB frame
 
I'm trying to fit a new XTR front derailleur to the Exotic carbon MTB frame. I have an old band clamp derailleur, but I'm (VERY!) concerned about it crushing the carbon frame.

Shimano FD-M981-D (http://www.competitivecyclist.com/shimano-xtr-fd-m981-direct-mount-front-derailleur-triple)

So, I bought one of the carbon front derailleur clamps (http://www.carboncycles.cc/?s=0&c=86&p=934&tb=001), but the clamp seems to be for road derailleurs, not the direct mount Shimano MTB derailleurs. Consequently, I'm struggling to fit it.

Does anyone know if there's a way or whether I'm going to have to go back to a band mounted version with the severe risks posed to the frame?
