A question for Falcon Majorca owners please

[averagebiker]

Hi,
Can anyone who has one measure the size of their seatpost. Mine seems a little loose in the seat tube and is not original so I suspect I ought to get a slightly bigger one.
Cheers Rich

... it looks like it uses a 26.8mm post.

Thanks, somehow I managed to miss that when trawling the forum for info

On that basis I will try a 26.6mm post I have on another bike to see if it fits better than the current item (which can then be used on a project bike I have that needs a 26.2mm post).
