Percybigun · Dec 18, 2017

As above, its for a 1980's sr leprade seatpost, as fitted to raleigh racers.

I know its a long shot, but i've lost mine and thought it was worth an ask!

Hmmmm... I'm looking at a 1988 SR Laprade drying out on my radiator (damp seat), its not quite the same as the picture.

I need to see a picture of yours so I can match it all up - I have a lot of spares from old posts.

Some Laprade posts used a steel clamp similar to those used on basic Kalloy posts. They don't look as nice as the alloy clamps but they are interchangeable.

Its not that, its the clamps themselves have different depths, how much rail they clamp on to. You cant mix these up with the wrong post otherwise the clamp tightens to the seat but not to the post! Or tightens to the post but theres too much material and the clamp doesnt clamp the seat rails...

Phew!

Nurse!
