RE: 164 S Conversion - DeDion Tube Pivot on Milano

["Eaton, Jason" <jeaton@domain.elided>]

Correct it's the SZ modification .. Sorry. 

I have heard two stories on this modification one that it dramatically
IMPROVES the handling, the other that it makes the ride so rough that you
cannot ride comfortably in it. 

Anybody have a post-mortem on this swap?

Why would the 164S and Milano have anything in common in the rear 
suspension?

Are you sure you're not looking for the SZ style spherical deDion 
bearing?   IAP now sells them...
