I've bought it, bargain indeed.

100% seller means it won't turn up with a massive crack that "wasn't there when I sent it, pal"

Nice. You often see this version utterly mauled by chainsuck, but this one doesn’t seem too bad at all

 

[bikeworkshop]

I thought Chainsuck was finished by 2000
I'll start a thread.

That is super cheap. I've got one myself and it too is free of chainsuck so perhaps you are right that by 2000 it was history.

Mine doesn't have decals, would like some one day.

Litespeed version so is prone to chainsuck. Stick with Shimano and not Race Face chainrings and you’ll be fine.

Got one myself and NOS 18” frame for sale.

How can a frame be prone to chain suck? Surely this is a chainset/chain issue?

Some frames have less clearance between the Chainstay and chainring with a given chainline.
Also quality aluminium frames (and carbon) can be written off in a single event.
