I am usually lothe to make such requests on The Bunch, but my fears that the new batch of Platypus would have downtube bosses was confirmed today, and I thought maybe there might be sweet-baby small boy in someone's garage, that was in need of relocation. 

The added downtube bosses are a small thing that I could probably live with, but I'll never use them, and ya know... the small things are big things.

Anyway, I am looking for 50cm Platypus preferably in Mermaid or Sergio Green... something like that. (Birthday surprise for the missus)

Please DM me if you have a line on a loose one.
Thank you!

i'm curious to know why this is a point of contention? surely the added ability to adjust from the downtube is a pro. When I got my Sam I wished the the bosses to be the adjustable cable stop kind, but Ultimately it was fine and doesnt make that much of a difference. 

Now that they DO, I prefer mine, only because it still has the original (or second original) seat tube cluster.

enquiring minds...
