Are top-guns sought after or not? Just a pre-Tom cruise Rascal right?

I'm pretty sure the Top gun was the precursor to the Attitude and as such, shared it's race geometry.
One of the easier paint schemes to have re-done though.

Top Gun = Rascal
Attitude = Rascal except the headtube

I'm not very keen on Top Gun's Patriot paintjob. Would like to have a linear fade Rascal instead.

The same one (dont know if it is THE..) was recently for sale on the Dutch marktplaats. With as I can remember the same paintdamage, decal damage and the crack at exactly the same place.

He asked then 150 euro for it.

Shame about the seat tube (and the colour) :roll:

 

[magicmistertea]

errrrr

how do you manage to do that to the seat tube ? is it me or is that incredibly hard to do ? did they try to use an extra thin seatpost and then use a vice to close the seat tube around it, and then use a screwdriver to bend it out again !!!!

A problem with all older Kleins I believe, you had to use the exact right size post (27.2 so not HTF) or frame breakage could occur, this one was probably cause by a too small (even a 27.0 could do it) post set dangerously high, i.e. above the seat tube weld

(and the colour)

What's wrong with the color?
