Thanx for the info...hopefully I can grab one for a reasonable price...shame on the Mavic post though...very nice looking piece! I guess the Mavic will remain a holder for the Arione when I feel like going "light"...

The aero and smooth version that has Campagnolo down the side use a 6mm allen bolt instead of the 13mm bolt. Though I haven't put one on that style seat post, I can't see where there would be an issue, other than bolt length.
