they aren't 'plop'

I have one that I got from another member and the weld quality etc is great....it certainly fooled a few people as well but there are differences - long seat tube being the most obvious.

It's not a proper gen 1 and never will be but still quite nice.  Not sure I would have gone to the expense of a re-chrome (at southern prices anyway!)

I got mine as a bike I would ride and not worry about ( like about 50% of my collection!)  :)
