Re:

Hi all
I was wondering if anyone can help me identify this frame?
Thats not its original paint job although it was always black but the top and down tubes were a bare metal finish that blended into the black paint towards the ends...
Im thinking its a 94 Diablo possibly???

Looks like an MT4 or Ogre if it were silver/black - like mine.
A later one, as the cable runs are at the side of the top tube.
Mine's older, note the different routings.

I used to think it was an MT4 but the paint finish was a bit different and also the seat stay/seat tube join, was originaly like this but black...

Didn't have the Dyna-Tech sticker on the seat tube though.

Hello Zaskar96,

In 1994 there was the Diablo AL with the same paint finish in black, like the provided frame picture. It was Duo-Tech made, CroMo and Titanium. The dropout and the Seatstay lugs was different to the MT4 of 1993.

Best regards from Mainhatten

Hi , thanks for tip. Look what i found...

Decals are different and mine had a proper Raleigh badge on the head tube but other than that looks to be the same
