Things I wish I had known when I bought this bike:
- It takes a 26.6mm seatpost
I'm running a heavy-ass vintage MTB seatpost as a result. Derp.

Ha. Sorry dudes. I don't speak for @IAmSam, but other than being old and somewhat rare, my bike isn't particularly remarkable. There are plenty of nice bikes here.
And thanks
And thanks

Dajia Seatpost, multiple sizes - Seatposts - Components
I recently picked up a 25.4 for a silly hi-ten project I'm working on. Looks pretty good (certainly better than anything else I could find in the odd sizes), decently light, and you can't beat the price.

The size options appear a bit limited at the moment, but they usually have every size you could ever want:

Hi Tim,
It's a standard Elite Ciussi cage (albeit in celeste) mated to a Two Fish Quick Cage adapter, which has worked well for me. Your best bet for that cage is to search patiently on eBay, as they turn up only periodically. Happy hunting!

This bike now validates my decision to start saving up for the Record Pista crankset. Getting irritated with the non-concentric circles my 105 road crank has (despite following Sheldon's chainring centring technique)
Did you run it with matching BB, or use a different (less expensive) one? I've heard the Veloce BB also works.
