That silver syncros... sure looks like a titanium seatpost.
Do you have a Mag 21 in working order already?

Its alu. I restored it. And no, I haven't got a Mag21 yet. I had one in 90's but not now

If you are not in a rush you can go for a dream bike. The stratos is ok for daily but the steel attitude or a more modern Blizzar is quite nice.

Even a Element. I have built mine with all the time of the world and fit new parts and it is amazing, very fun bicycle in narrow paths. So not only 80s or 90s, I will look a bit in the 00s. Perhaps I went a bit extreme and nobody will spend such amount of money, but it was my dream bike and the frame was new, so time and some money to make the dream and ride it. It was better than I thought. It rides quite well. In the other hand my Marin looks quite good but ... only for some special days that you are in the right mood. https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/rm-element-70-my-dream-bike-built.418743/

I agree with you. I prefer a steel unit. An Altitude if possible. I'll wait.

What would you think about an Equipe unit 1995 in pristine condition, around 350€? Is it worth waiting an unicorn Altitude?

They're all fine frames but if you're intending to build something that is going to be a special keeper, something that you can really treasure, then hold out for that one frame you always have lusted for.

I understand you, but this Equipe one is very nice painted and in veery good condition. And steel. Hard decision. Altitude, Tibolt, Blizzard, Equipe, and maybe a Vertex 95 (i like that years colors).

If you like it then get it while you wait for one of the others to show up in your size. Can be a long wait sometimes

Yeah.

What @mk one said
If you don't get your Altitude or whatever straight away - get another frame and build it as per how you'd kinda want the Altitude - an just transfer the kit over.
