Oh wow.

So £450 is pretty good then? Lol

Still good, but if yours is actually a Minor searching sold prices cuts out the dreaming sellers.

No mate,

It's definitely a Major MD30B apart from the single pinch bolt all the specs are for the major.

Hi Dave Halford, a few of us have studied this, and I think we've all come to the conclusion that Paul's one is a Major and not a Minor. The fact there seems to be some change in the way the head is clamped to the column over the years, is irrelevant, as it's possible that the casting suppliers may have changed things.

Regards Nick.

In which case yours was half price and I'm glad I said IF it's a Minor smiley note one was sold twice

That one didn't even have the base either, Mine is a 1999 model too so 9 years newer. so I'm pretty happy with that.
