The bad news, The Technomic stem I picked out had been ground down to a smaller dimension. It is actually 7/8" at the upper section.

If this stem had not been ground on it could be a donor for the seat post. I'm gonna hafta find a good stem to carve up for this project.
It may be that an SR from Japan will have the right dimension for a post. Smiles, MH

Hmm! I didn't even think of a stem! The Le Grande and I are honored that you are thinking of us. I do have a plan for the seatpost, and it involves another cannibalized part. I've got one in the shop, haven't started work on it. Soon.
