Not tested, disassembled immediately. All cleaned, ordered the necessary new parts, poortjob done and rebuilt: When fitting the final part, it breaks down ... Then the handle was already no longer safe All three together:

Long story; the xpg 2002 came with a 372XP decal, Then I ordered an original 372XPG decal for the xpg, and so had a spare. Then I have another question: Is the thick 'imposed' number tag still for sale? I like the 'World Campion' tag...
