WTB: 26.8 seatpost
I'm looking for a nice, clean 26.8 seatpost for my mountain bike. It needs to be at least 250mm long. Doesn't necessarily need to be a "mountain bike" seatpost. Thanks.

The nicer one I was thinking of was 26.6 and the other 25.8 of all things.
I think this is a pretty decently close to vintage Kalloy that might clean up okay.
I’ll keep looking.

The former owner of Dirt Research has been selling off his warehouse scraps for years, looks like he still has some 26.8 at a great price for NOS.
