Yes, the lugged seatpost is a two bolt, and I was thinking I'd like to replace it with a plain aluminum S83 two-bolt seatpost. But maybe that's more trouble than it's worth. I had the idea that the fancy lugged seatpost looked funny on the Soma "San Marcos", but a lugged seatpost would look at home on the Appaloosa with its fancy lugwork. That's all. But if there isn't (and never was) a lugged S84 in 26.8mm, as Jay Lonner pointed out, then the whole plan kinda falls apart. I think I should re-evaluate the whole plan.
