"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.
