I have what I think is an older one of these. Can anyone fill in the details on the history of these posts?
A Google search led me to this:
http://www.bikepro.com/
And interestingly the one I have doesn't have this type of section for the main portion of the post, and it seems to have a red plug in the top. Does this tell us anything about age? The current American Classic website makes no mention of the history.
