Hardly anything ever comes up on gumtree but i always look.

Then i saw this

Can anyone confirm what type of Burner it is? Is it a mk2 cromo burner?

I think the tuffs have been dyed and it has the dreaded stuck seatpost.

Some ok parts though incl takagi one piece,sugino spider,chainring and bolts,Suntour power stem and Shimano freewheel.Tange bb.

If the forks are sealed plug type (no end caps) then it's a stripped of it's gold supertuff mark 2

The mk1's were but on the mk2's, the higher you went up the range the better the frame composites got.
The basic models were mild steel, then the mid range was MT chromo and then the supertuff and ultra were Full Chromo.
This frame is a Supertuff frame as it was the only chrome plated Full chromo mk2 frame, the ultra been the other but was painted black and not chrome plated.
