Campy seat post, ID help needed
Found this at the LBS in the old seat box with bombed out Italian saddle attached. It shown like gold at the bottom of the box.
The mechanic is just 21 yo and races mountain bikes. Gave the seat and post to me free when I bought a work stand that was on sale for a hundred bucks($160 on Amazon).
It was a good day.

Super Record. Depending on condition, it could sell for as much as you spent on the workstand, or more:

Just be sure you use a quality box wrench to tighten that low profile bolt head.

Mounted
Installed. 27.2mm.
Gazelle frame is so happy.
Rode it to work tonight.
Used a good 13mm boxend wrench on the center bolt.
Lovely to tighten.
Thanks to Larkin at Mel's in Rhinelander.
And the bicycle gods.

Wow... He's right about the seatpost making about as much as the actual stand cost you, on ebay. Man, that's just wrong. Sooo wrong.
The bike gods hate me despite all my ritualistic sacrifices to them. Curses!
