Can I use a 30.9 which is more widely availible? I wouldn't hesitate to pinch a little if this frame were steel, but it is aluminum.

Arg, this frame is beautiful but also takes an Ital BB. Pain in the ass for modern components.

Thanks.
Check with excelsports.com. The sell USE adapters in various sizes. I have a Pegoretti
Duende. It requires a 29.4mm seat post. However Excel carries a 29.4 to 27.2 adapter,
which cost something like $10 - $12. If they carry an adapter in the size you need it
allows using a "standard" sized seat post.
