Well if they measured it at 26.5 my guess would be it actually takes 26.4or 26.6 which are lot more common and would be consistant with a older Specialized seatposts typical go by .2 difference. 26.5 just doesn't seem right for seat post. While a real good set of calipers will get you close I have often found the only way be sure is to try several seat posts to be sure. Did the shop actually stick a post in there to verify the size.
