Campagno0lo SR did not hit the Pro Peloton as preliminary sample test parts until 1977...so fluted seat posts themselves were simply machined versions of regular seat posts until then...and they were done many different ways by many differnet prople...a lot of Campy NR posts were fluted and/or drilled in the late 60's and 70's.
