Yes, kinda. Several years go one could buy them from Velo Orange. They stopped selling them when they realized the only time they moved any kind of quantity was when there were on sale.


Left: (threaded posts) works with modern cantilevers, sidepulls, and non-MAFAC style centerpulls
Right: (non-threaded posts) works with MAFAC style brakes, but not available separately now, AFAIK

Both use the same conical seat washer system, allowing some angle change. The MAFAC syle has a long allen screw inside the "ribbed" cylinder.
