I've got a Richard Moon with "653 Record" main tubes(seller's description, I

don't know if there's such a thing as a Record tubeset or not) that I strong ly suspect takes a 27.4 post. When I got it, the former owner had been using a 27.2 post and the binder bolt ears were toed in enough to have severely bent

the bolt. I just bought a 27.4 post and it seems to fit well enough up top

but won't go in much further as yet, I suspect because of a liberal applicat ion of a thick gummy frame preservative that I need to clean out.

I ended up buying a Thompson post, but from looking at my catalogs, Campy made a 27.4 up to 1992 if I remember right.
