I bought a 2nd hand set of blutos a couple years ago, they don't get used much and I'm thinking of selling...
Is there an easy external way of finding out if they have the rct3 damper or RL? Other than the usual sticker as these had been removed.....

Also other than the damper is there any differences between the two? as the rct3 fork seems significantly lighter.

Should be a serial number on the back of the crown, put it in here: https://trailhead.rockshox.com/en/

No luck...
The serial number 21T73931559 doesn't seem to register....

From memory, the compression knob on the right hand crown is different.
RCT3's the main outer knob has three positions (open/platform/lockout) with a compression dial for the open mode in the centre
RLs just have the main outer knob which functions as the centre dial on the RCT3's

Great that would confirm that they have an RCT3 cartridge 👍.
