I could also possibly be 27.0.

Perhaps the Falck tubing is not the same dimentions as Renolds 531. Ive been riding a Bridgestone since I sold my Hetchins in 92 and hardly remember how to spell Campangolo, let alone think of tube sizes. So I dug out my calipers and measured the id and it looks very much like 27.2mm. Duh. Am I correct in assuming that I need a 26.8mm post?
