Dyna Tech 925 Vento

Hi,
I have a dynatech titanium 925 Vento, full Campagnola 8spd chain set, campagnola seatpost, titanium stem and the most wonderful set of Campagnola Vento rims on Campagnola hubs. I'm desperate to find anything out about this bike, I think it's around 92/93 but could be wrong. What do you all think ??

It's probably a mangmoly instead of cromoly.
Mangmoly isn't magnetic
Yes it is! ??
I don't know about modern steels, but all Reynolds tubing was Mang-Moly except 501 - and definitely magnetic
 
Depends on the manganese content. High manganese (8% ish i think, years since i've looked at it) = non magnetic. Not sure how much reynolds use.

How modern do you mean? 725 and 525 are chrome molybdenum. The rest of the metals they seem to be a bit cagey about. But as you say, most likely mang moly or a derivative of.

But either way, as established up there, it's an aluminium alloy head tube.

Despite being ferrus I'm no iron-man, and am pretty much un ironed! Bit rusty though and tend to prefer titanium these days...ironically :oops:
