Barracuda - Totally Driven!

I'm in search for a seatpost for my Cuda, cause the one that i have on it right now(26.4) it's the wrong diameter(at least that's what i think). I didn't find any info online about the correct size, so i was wondering if any of you guys could help me out with this issue of mine. Another thing would be some brakepads i want to buy.... i'm pretty sure most of you used a couple of theese: http://www.jensonusa.com/Kool-Stop-Salm ... Brake-Pads
Are they that good? Thanx! Now i gotta' go for a ride!

I'm still using my Ritchey Pro Logics that are over 15 years old on my stumpy, granted that bike gets used off and on, but still rock after all this time.
