Yes, I do need a 22.2mm (7/8"😉 diameter post. Thanks for your
suggestion, but that style of seatpost won't work for me.

There are lots of BMX seatposts that are very similar to or exactly the
same as the Primo Rod. It's a generic style BMX seatpost. Almost every
BMX brand has that same seatpost. The parts from different brands are
even interchangeable. You can take the guts from one brand and put
them in the seatpost for another brand. Right now I've got a Primo Rod
seatpost with SX (a Schwinn brand) guts.

Where these seatposts differ is usually in their guts. The guts are the
part that actually clamps on the seat rails. Some will have really
cheap guts that are basally a pipe cut in half. Others will have more
nicely formed guts that flow around the rails hold the rails better.
Others will use aluminum alloy guts that are lighter and that also are
nicely formed around the rails.

I've seen the Primo Rod come with a couple different styles of steel
guts. Some of the guts looked like they could actually damage the rails
when clamped while others were very good and would cradle the rails
nicely. Basically you can't tell what you're going to get unless you
actually see it when you buy it.

The KHE and the Primo are probably the same. Find out which one has
better guts and get that one. If you can find a similar seatpost with
alloy guts you will probably like the alloy guts better.
