Moser owner club

My old SLX Moser:

Quite an unusual color scheme.
Like the brake bridge of this. I assume the bike is late 80s / early 90s?

Sounds about right for date. 27" Wheels.

27"?

For a while there was 700c and 27" wheels, 700c prevailed and is the standard now.

Thread here with a bit of info: https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/137801/

Yeah I know that,but I thought a frame of late 80s would be for 700c already.

Oh right, yeah, no idea to be honest.

I have a question about Moser Leader AX,when choosing size should i just look at seat tube c-c? Because Leader AX have pretty long seat tube above top tube.
Wrench science and competitivecyclist calculators show:
Frame Size center-to-center: 52 cm
Frame Size center-to-top: 53 cm
Overall Reach: 66 cm
Will 52 c-c Moser AX Leader be ok size for me??
Thanks

He clearly wasn't accustomed to wear a suit :)

Picked this up the other day:

Wonderful Paint!

Mine is in the same colors!

Also is that a F.Moser pump?

mind sharing more pictures of Columbus sticker, BB shell, fork crown, rear brake bridge and seat cluster?

Cheers.
It seems all original to me. Well done.

Yep, it is a Moser pump.

Happy to take some more images of the frame, but can't right now. The bike is at work, hidden from Mrs JJ.

Cool!
Looking forward to the pictures :)

Here we go:

Columbus Sticker

Rear Brake Bridge

Fork Crown

Seat Cluster

BB Shell

Enjoy

very nice. I think this is one of the last frames that they made before the hour record in 1994.
Usually full 51.151 frameset have the record arrow on the fork crown (like in your case) and on the frame itself (plus decals).
Your frame doesn't so either it's because it is Aelle (very nice tubing, but not for racers, so considered of a low quality [it is not]) or because it was a frame they had already or they were finishing up those BB shells, but already had new forks, so they could have mixed those.

Whatever, it is a wonderful frame. Mine it is from a year or so before yours, also in Aelle, and rides very smooth. Again, like the paintjob very much.

Thanks for that.

It was an E-bay find, came over from Hungary.

I haven't actually ridden it yet, as it came without tyres, and I haven't had a chance to glue the tubs on. Brought it home from work today though, so should be out on it soon.

Almost done!

Can anyone explain how this works internally? I understand the lower piece being drawn up and expanding, but can't work out the job of the allen bolt underneath the seat clamp.

You actually screw it in. It actually screws inside the internal rod at an angle. This causes the rod to pull up, thus pushing the lower part of the seatpost, again, up, compressing on the walls.
It actually pulls up just a few millimetres, so you need to screw in the lower part the at right height before putting it into the frame.

Thanks. So the longer rod that comes from the bottom has to be wide enough for the smaller allen bolt at the top to screw into it?

That's correct...it's exactly a few mm wider.
Actually I think it's simply a hole, the bolt screws in in the other side of the seatpost, maybe...need to verify :) can't remember correctly. But that's the general idea.
