Only one size (51 cm) and color (silver), but if this works for you it's a great deal. I'm gonna paint mine.

Cool, thanks for posting that. Looks like the one that came on my Team Champion. I lost that one about 30 years ago, so I guess it's time for a replacement.

One centimeter too long for me, but there are 50cm SKS (Bluemels) available. Nice pump.

I have 2 or 3 really long ones. New. Remnants of the paper wrapper. The old non-frame fit style.
hey can be cut down to any size you want.

I'd be surprised if those NOS PDX ebay sellers didn't grab em all. Expect to see them again for $140 each.

The coop I help run had a box of these pumps donated a while back. I can dig them out if there's interest.

I'll pass. They look cool and are authentic for many European road bikes, but they simple don't work anywhere near as well as a Zefal HP-X.
