This one we know a bit about from the SN list. At #138 it's one of the last produced. It used to have the red painted headtube but that was removed some time ago. If you manage to see it before you buy it, check inside the headtube. The disc tab was added by the factory apparently.

It's a steep price but admittedly really nice looking example.

The serial list says this didn’t have a painted headtube? Is the bike on this site somewhere?

 

[al-onestare]

On the detailed list I have from Pip it is listed that way. I'll update the main page later.

Ah ok, is that why you suggest looking inside the head tube? To see if there’s red paint inside?

 

[Takingabreak]

surely the 1 in front of the 799 is a typo?

I've messaged him to see if that's what he's actually expecting to get for it. I would hope he's advertised it at that price to put off any time wasters. Nice example but that price is a bit mental

Edit: also, that disc tab surely would have a brace if factory fitted

They didn't come with braces. The tubing is defo capable of taking the stress.

Exactly
