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…
Oddly, snappage under the stem clamp in both cases. It's an ancient hybrid-construction fork, they often start to come apart at the dissimilar material bonds, so I'd have a good look there too.
