Bruce Moose Posted October 12, 2018 Share I haven't been here in a few weeks. Some nice bike builds that have been completed... I need help. I am looking for the illustrious 25mm LOOK seat post for a 481 SL that I am building... I bought one from France about 2 months ago and our WONDERFUL postal service has yet to provide some sort of info or part... Does someone by chance have one that they would like to part with that won't cost the earth or else something like a 25mm DA seat post? TIA.

DJR Posted November 25, 2018 Share I recently bought this frame and if at all possible I would like to identify it before deciding on how to proceed with it. Everything screams that it is a high end frame, but I cannot find any identifying marks. I'll post detail pictures and hope that someone can help. I don't know if it is the original paint, but I see no obvious reason to think it was re-sprayedThe seat stays and chain stays are partly chromedIt only has bottle cage bolts on the down tube, none on the seat tubeI don't know if the fork is original, but have no specific reason to think that it is notThe construction, brazed on bits, fork shoulders, all indicate to mid 1970s to mid 1980s Edited November 25, 2018 by DJR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJR Posted November 25, 2018 Share Built with Reynolds 531The specific sticker was used during the 1960s and 1970s Edited November 25, 2018 by DJR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJR Posted November 25, 2018 Share The most unusual feature of the frame is the seat post clamp. The seat tube is NOT splitInside the seat tube is a clamp that moves to clamp the seat post when the bolt outside is turned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
