Haro Extreme 1992 Seatpost Diameter

[YourroyalHEINniss]

Hi all,

I have this 21,5 inch Haro Extreme frameset hanging (upside down for future Caustic Soda treatment) but I'm not quite sure about the new seatpost's diameter.
Current one is frozen, mingled, ruined, deformed and in general not suitable for precize measurement.
Cannot seem to find any online info, can any of you be of any assistance?
26.4mm could have been a 'Comp' version but that not mine.
It's close to 30, but not quite so; 29.6 or 29.8

Turns out to be a '92 version!
Determined by the fact that Haro apparantly introduced bigger tubing and an external seatclamp in '92.
According this article I'll have to search for 29,4 mm

@MattiThundrrr convinced me to go with a carbon seatpost cause '...it's a Haro Extreme...'

I picked it up (this rare size popped up less than 15km from where I live) and once I have cleared out the remaining rust bits, I will fit like a glove.

The raw concept was easy to assemble.
Am not much of a high-end guy, therefore a nice LX groep will fit perfectly.

Ooh, you didn't mention the girvin stem! I sort of collect oddball bar suspension stuff, I love it on that unusual frame!

Ah, the connaisseur!
Girvin flexstem.....still have to mount one new of these skateboard truck rubbers in order to work at least as the original engineers would have wanted it.
In fact, I've one been sending back home to me as the buyer of my latest 'concept'bike didn't like it (or actually did not trust the 1" thing mounted in a filler in a 1 1/8 fork )
Sending it over to Canada would be a bit of a hassle?
Same as for the advert at the end.
Keep the comment coming.

Yes shipping to Canada is often cost prohibitive, the fees are often double or triple the price of the item

I've already got one of those ones, not nearly as nice as that though. Are you in the Nederlands? If so, that's another funny little coincidence, both of my parents were born there.
