Piernas Flacas Posted August 13, 2022 Share In the brochure's photo the seat stays look different than the OP's bike. The tips welded to the seat tube top appear to be cut flat diagonally. I've seen this in other bikes as well. Anybody knows the purpose of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
