Scott, I would only look at it and I would avoid using it. I had one on my Gitane in the late 80s or early 90s. It was a cool day, about in the mid 30s. I was rounding a corner; I was out of the saddle and it broke. A hollow pin pulled right out of the side plates. That was my lesson. I avoid minimalist trash. Those hollow pins are really affected by temperature extremes. Beware.
