Re:

Is it a good idea to install disk brake adpaters on a Dyna-Tech Torus XT? I have found such as those, but I don't know if they are worth the money and installation effort:

Someone on here was designing one to fit onto a Torus, I'm not sure what happened with it in the end. Think he was using a 3D printer for a prototype.

Thanks. To what extent do Dyna-Tech Torus XT frames differ from expensive high-end frames (Litespeed, Merlin etc.)? Are they much inferior in some regard? Does anyone know anything about the titanium alloys that Ralleigh used?

Is it possible to attach a clip-on mudguard like the "SKS Velo 65 Mountain" and a luggage carrier to a Torus frame?

Hi all, I stumbled across this forum whilst looking to restore my Titanium Dyna-Tech Racing mountain bike, my friend built it up for me using available parts approx 16 years ago,

mine is in the bare finish and I'm trying to find one similar to help me identify what year/model it is, I will post some pictures up soon
