Jeff,

The alloy supports did debut with 1st Ed. SR. When the 2nd Ed. SR was released (single bolt), that alloy support was carried over into the new NR seatpost. Even though the part #s for that support are different between the 1st Ed. SR vs. the NR, the part is identical. Whether your alloy support was originally from an early SR, I don't know. If your post is truly a NR, then it's the steel support that would not be original to that post. Without more details, it's possible you could have an old Record post, or a Superleggero post, a NR post, or a GS post. All of these posts are difficult to tell apart if your not aware of the differences.
