I'm not surprised to see an affirmation from Ralph Kramden. I was only
trying to advise caution because some people may get the wrong impression

I am unsure if your seatpost size is available but the Rivendell site has a
“Way Back” by IRD as well as Paul has “Tall and Handsome “ Seatpost which is
of course quite a bit more money. I have the Paul in a 27.2 and it works like a
charm
I also had the Way Back from Rivendell,
Thanks Bernard! I emailed Riv to see if they had the IRD or Paul in 26.6mm,
but no dice, so looking into some vintage options.

@Caroline,
The screw on the back side of the IRD Way Back seat post may interfere with
your need to have the post lower with your saddle on your bike. Whereas the
Sakae Ringyo MTE-100 post would not have that problem.

Nope. If you've read through the entire thread you'd see that the name
"Ralph Kramden" simply refers to a character in a 50's sitcom who was a
big city bus driver, played by actor Jackie Gleason. I've given him that
