  • Thanks, that’s all the encouragement I needed!
    It’s now mine.
    If the seat post doesn’t slip it’s a winner :)

  • If the fork doesn’t snap it’s a winner

    The CL was never recalled (unlike the SL), but there are a couple of anecdotal reports that they aren't completely reliable. At the least, give it a thorough inspection before riding.

  • Aye the chap was quite honest about it all. He was the original owner. He mentioned that the SL had been recalled and he was given the CL as a replacement.

    He also pointed out that the seat posts were prone to slipping but Cervelo sent out a brass shim to sort it. He claims it’s been fine, I guess I’ll find out.

    I’ve gave the fork a good look over and there doesn’t appear to be anything blatantly wrong with it.
    What issues were reported with the CL fork?

    It’s obviously not perfect but for £100 I couldn’t resist. Very much an impulse buy with no real research. But that’s always the most exciting way. Buy now, think later…
