Here you go. The top longer one is Redline the other is a shorter Tange version.

Cro-mo and slightly fluted that's it in a nutshell other than they are rare and hard to find!!

Cheers Guys  :daumenhoch:

I have a seat post it's badly scratched up and can just make out it was made by "Strong Japan" on the bottom of it, and it has 2 flutes each side with a black strip inserted into the flute .. finally took some pics of it ..
