Modern Montegrappa Regular Edition Pens

[Christopher Godfrey]

I <have> posted elsewhere -- with no response -- but does anyone here please know of alternative nibs for modern Montegrappas?  I have a silver Eleganza and would like to install something with flex in it: any ideas, please?

I think the standard Eleganza uses a Bock number 5 nib, but the ebonite feeds are unique to Montegrappa, so it's not a given that an alternative flexy size 5 Bock will fit without modification.  If it's the larger size Eleganza, it's probably a size 6 nib.  

You might be able to find a suitable vintage nib which will fit better than trying to use one of the modern flexy cut-out nibs.

Thank you, aggoo!  Much appreciated.
