Paramount MX in its "happy position"

Hey, that's what the manual said (happy position). Clutches locked, no counterweights.
When released, the counterweight bar is just heavy enough to rotate it to the down position but not so heavy as to put any strain on the gears.

Received 20-Jun-2012, just in time for summer. :O)
