Spec for ‘84 models as pictured don’t mention the seat clamp being Dia-Compe. Are they DC or copies?
-
That’s the same as what I had on my 84 Supergoose 3, it was unbranded, but mine was a U.K. model.
-
Yeah I thought the manufacturer would have been mentioned if it actually was branded. 👍🏼
Another seat clamp question... in this image from part of the spec of my project, the seat clamp is listed as Dia-Compe tech 2 seat post clamp! Is that what is now commonly known as the mx1500 or another entirely? Sorry for my stupidity but I don’t get any results when searching for the spec part listed. Any idea guys??
-
They were copies on gooses and ammaco's at the time :daumenhoch:

Weren't they stamped FS and had the square side hole not circular same as DC clamps but they were copies :daumenhoch:
-
Something like this?
Any idea on the part listed on the spec list though. It says it's Dia-Compe (genuine) ??

never heard of a DC seatclamp referred to as a 'Tech 2' only brake levers. It is probably the correct term .
-
The FS stamped are mongoose seat clamps.
They are a bit thicker than the genuine dia comp mx stamped clamps.
Here are a few pics..

Cheers guys and thanks for the pics. It cool seeing them both together, I like the slightly beefier look of the goose version. Might slap my polished Sr seatpost clamp on when all parts are sourced.
Yeah, just levers popping up with tech 2 in the search. Might be a typo too.

Thanks, if I do look for a DC or copy it'll be the hinged type. Cleaner looking imo

Yeah I do like the look of the hinged one especially with mx brakes.

Yeah I do like the look of the hinged one especially with mx brakes.
Yeah that would be a good match. Just can't find the real deal cheap enough. Going for the Chang Stars I reckon.

The Chang Stars look good. There’s a black pair on eBay for £35 which doesn’t seem too bad.

I've been watching them for a bit now and just bought them 👍🏼
