Campagnolo seatpost for Kurve saddle
I'm finishing out the build of my NOS Giordana Superleggero and the Kurve Chameleon saddle I just picked up on ebay doesn't seem to fit the current polished Kalloy Seatpost I have on it. This is a top to bottom type clamping system but the rails seem too narrow. I was going to find and pay the crazy money for a Campagnolo Aero style seatpost but I'm wondering if this saddle will fit on it either. Is anyone out there running such a setup and confirm it fits? I'm also open to any other classic style seatpost they is known to work. Thanks

The pictured saddle looks like an Aliante, not a Kurve; dunno if it makes a difference to rail shape, but it may.

LOL, the pic was just a reference to the bike and the current post, not the saddle. The saddle I'm working with now is a Kurve Chameleon, the Aliante was just around to put on when I took pics of the bike. I remembered after posting that I had more old posts in the garage and have the Kurve on now. But I'd still like to know if a Campagnolo Aero seatpost will work with the Kurve saddle because this bike is all about the looks, mainly.
