I now have two of these, so putting the smaller one up for sale.
This is fairly catalogue correct, but subtly upgraded in a few places where noted.
Overall condition is ‘survivor’ with plenty of patina, but everything functions as it should.
The elastomer is non-standard - I think it may be from one of those Cane Creek Thudbuster seatposts, and whilst it’s not a OEM item it does seem to ‘work’ to a point, but a low rider weight would be recommended.
Ideally I’d like this to go complete, so I’m asking £165 ono collected from Oxfordshire.
