thanks!!

it's a Tioga seatpost. "Titan finish", but just an alu one
I bought it new on ebay. Very cheap, only 28 dollar including shipping or something like that! They do come up pretty often if you want one. Got a silver syncros now which will replace the Tioga probably, just have to contact gil for some new decals

classy bike, nicely put together. the mag 21 forks really look good on steel frames.

thanks! The Mag is probably going to my Merlin though. For this bike I have the original steel fork, a Specialized FS fork, or a Manitou 2.

Awesome stumpy, I've been searching for one for a while in near original condition like yours. I personally love the rigid forks but looks great with rigid or suss.

I think the rigid looks better too, but this is a rider, so a bit of boing on the front is not too bad

I bought a Judy XC with steel springs recently. Haven;t got the chance to mount it, but looking forward to test that fork.
