A flatland freestyle reunion!

Anyone know much about the Standard Tao OX frames?

I'm building one up, and have hit a snag. Seems that a 25.4 seatpost will not work with it. I clamped down the seatpost clamp (there was no gap left in the clamp), and as you can tell, its still loose. Anyone know what seatpost size I need, as well as what seatpost clamp? HELP!!

Not sure what size post it needs. Do you know what year the frame was built? That might help narrow your search for posts manufactured close to that year.

I have no experience with this frame but I googled it and saw a couple of references to the Tao OX needing a 27mm seatpost. You can get those on Dan's cheap here. You'd then have to search for an appropriate seat clamp. Shouldn't be too difficult. Be sure to search around the net and make sure it's 27mm and not 27.2mm though.
