Trying to work out the tubing could narrow it down between different models - the catalogue image below details certain models, but all later than the above frame. Mine is in its original Loto Caribe livery so identifying it is easy

Pump nipple?

Pump nipple.......Thats a little pointy thing on the steer tube to hang the end of 'yer pump on.
Thats the difference between the two loto frames that I have. More I can not say.
The earlier one has chrome and the latter doesn't. Wether you can use that as a gauge, I don't know.
The first one I bought in the states in..... I think '92 or '93 It had been built and ridden a couple of times so was virtually newish. I crashed it four months later and that too sports wrinkles in the top and down tubes.
