interesting ?!?! raw lacquer Brompton on ebay
hi all
this is an interesting ad
https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...:X:AAQ:GB:1123
but the seat post (looks like steel) and the rear frame (with the raw lacquer look) can't be titanium, or am I wrong - I though titanium parts were black ?

You are correct, there are no titanium parts on that bike.
Here is a photo of my Titanium bike. The titanium seat post is a dark blue and the titanium forks and rear triangle are a light grey.

Also the welds on the rear triangle give it away.
Your bike is fantastic
, I hope you don't think it too cheeky doing a bit of photoshop color correction, it deserves to be shown at it's best.
I'm impatiently waiting (3 weeks ) for a S6E-X with the same finish (ordered after seeing your post of the bike arriving).

Congrats on your new bike, I’m sure it will arrive soon (waiting can be a pain though)
