I have some experience using Campagnolo and other old-school clamp-on devices. I don't think the 1 1/8 clamp can be stretched to fit 1 1/4. The diameter of the circle the clamp would need to fit around is about .4 inches longer (do the math here: http://math.about.com/library/blcirclecalculator.htm), which is too long, even if you used a longer screw.
