I know that's the original seatpost. I've got that same
fluted, graduated model on two of my Centurions. I
haven't a clue what real need one would have for the
graduations but one person suggested it would come in
handy when trout fishing to measure your catch to make
sure it is legal. In any case, they came with many
Centurion models of the mid-80s and I like the look of
them.
