Hi everyone,

Would anyone here be able to share some light on which European Primavera years had the common round headsets and which have the rectangular/ trapezoid one?
Was this a market specific thing?

Thanks!

to my understanding all primmy's had round headsets. the 50 special was the only thing that got a "square" headset.

I did some further digging and realized that it was a Sweden only model locally called "Topolini", a Primavera VMA2 with modifications to make it lighter than 75kg (local insurance rule).
