[AxlFoley]

ok thats that theory out the window. i thought the idea of the fluted post was to make stonger so it would not bend.

I always thought it was to save weight

I had a haro fluted layback seatpost that I bought from US ebay about a year ago.

so they are out there

[AxlFoley]

and here is the proof, thanks ebay

Haro fluted seatpost. Repowered and stickered by c4.  Not finishing build.  See other auctions for frame, stem, and bars.    Perfect shape and ready to go.  Bid away and good luck.  If bidding makes it over $200 free shipping will apply.

I thought they were to play tunes on?

Curiously did it go for over $200, and if so did you get free shipping?

Yep, me think Haro too! Have one on o/s ride & do see em coming up on the bay, tho usually from Thailand with free postage & luvulongtime etc. 

[AxlFoley]
