Anyone know the tubes used on Toads?
I would assume True Temper but I am curious to know, as I have not noticed any decals with tube names on the ones I have seen.
Oh OK Jasujiro is the first name of Tange I believe, the founder of the company itself. Tange now produces frames under this name. Really stunning stuff as you would expect from Japanese manufacturers.
Wow!
I know Tange Ultimate to have gone down to some very thin heat treated tubesets to achive this. But I never thought they were below 1400gs. I guess this also depends on the size of the frame. I could see a 50cm frame being that light.
Anyhow, would you have a picture or link of the...
Hi @doctor-bond, I don't suppose you mean this one: https://weightweenies.starbike.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=144985
Cause for this the frame is 2179gs and the fork 472g. It also looks bigger than 56. I would say at least 60.
If that's not the one, out of curiosity, can you share the link of...
Amazing workmanship on their suspension forks. I believe this is one takes elastometers? Would be curious to know how they compare with oil spring or air shocks. Never tried an elastometer one.
Jeezzzzzzz how I’d love to ride this one! Gripping (can I even use this word when it comes to paint jobs?) paint job as usual!
Gottobe a keeper this one…
Hey pretty cool bike! Wasn't aware that they made alu frames that early and with a slopping top tube.
Any chance you can upload pics of BB and rear seat stays?
That tob tube is so cool being so beefy! It could be for 1 1/4 headset instead of 1 inch?
Hi everyone,
I have this P2 fork off my Brodie for sale if anyone is interested.
It’s suspension corrected, so 410mm axle to crown, and it has a 185mm steerer tube so plenty for most rigs.
It’s 60 euros excluding shipping.
PayPal friends and family please or add the fees.
Happy to give...
Hey @Tomac23!
Thanks for the heads up!
I checked it and unfortunately, it is too big for me. Otherwise it would have been a perfect candidate for the next project I am after!
Thanks again! Hope it will show up eventually!
Personally, I think Paul will love you for saving it...
Once again amazing find Kay!
I just don't know how you pull these finds off so frequently. Sign me up for your masterclass of finding unique bikes that need a resque...whenever that might be!
Hi everyone,
I know that's going to take some time but I remain hopeful! 🥸
I am after a Ventana Marble Peak frame from mid 90s. Any condition will make it. Size Medium or even Small will do it.
Any leads or just keeping this ad in mind if you come across any online would be highly...
