Just for info, it was discussed in a for sale topic now locked.
Many feel the Rega arms can not be made to work well on classic thorens suspended decks. The newer arms are much lighter and have a different mounting method as well, Rega themselves say this was for better compatibility on suspended decks.
The newer RB251 weighs in at about 330 grammes, the current RB202 will be about the same. The old RB250 weighs in at about 450 grammes.
This is a substantial difference.
