Hi! Curious, what where the dimensions of the seat post?
Having one of these chimos myself but without seat post unfortunately.
"Chimo!" is supposedly an Inuktitut equivalent of "Cheers!" The bicycle may
have been sold through a Canadian bicycle parts distributor, Norco. Norco
post sizes known to the encyclopaedic Sheldon Brown are listed he
http://sheldonbrown.com/seatpost-sizes.html. They're a atarting point. I
would take measurements with a pair of inside calipers and a micrometer and
mean three dimensions taken at 90 and 30 degrees from the axis of the top
tube (which will give you a hexagon in the bore) and see what I get.
