i concur, wrt certain things. Such as bonded carbon/ steel one offs from Colorado which fell apart /trash, while the Japanese & Taiwanese had it all figured out and were already mass-producing (Miyata & Merida). BTW Merida were taught by Raleigh, UK?

repaint is an easy diy job.

a regular hardware store should have everything you need. I would possibly : 1. punch a dent in the center of the screw 2. drill with superthin titanium nitride drillbit 3. miniature / small screw extractor https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw_extractor

forgot to blend in some Tibet, I mean Xizang.

Clark Kent. I believe ca 1991-92 due to spec.

Thanks for sharing, very interesting! Can the same mold be used for kevlar bead? I guess a thinner version / less material is not possible as a thinner "casting" would require material to be added to the mold, or is it perhaps the inner part / a "balloon" that determines that?

CK was made by various welders, so there was some difference between frames over the years. I've had one and it was very nice and has not had an issue.

Approximate year of manufacture would be useful, if you could add please, where available.

did you pay for the mold or do you have a say in what they use it for, or are they free to do as they please with it?

I would think the opposite, a shop that has access to lots of tubing and ordinary welders, and that is considering expanding into making bicycle frames. In particular bc they apparently did not put much weight onto the matter of weight ;)

if it was made or ordered by gt i doubt they would let it leave the company. a competent brand would cut it up so it could not be mistaken for a real frame.

little logic to make it like that, for a maker like GT, or a competent client. it will be heavy and stiff. welds and finish look like early 90s eg litespeed wo polish, but could easily be 2020s in an amateurish shop. the machined bosses look like 90s TW to me. the fact thst it is in CN though...

My guess it is not a vintage mtb collector at all. It's just a warehouse stuffed with vintage parts bought on ebay and other places for the purpose of analyzing them and copying, to whatever extent. Now in the process of unloading, but "not shipping abroad, just make yourself a taobao account...

and posted by someone who joined yesterday and carefully pushing a certain agenda while denying it, and claiming to be part of the community. please check taobao you all. winnie the pooh kids bike is a naughty buy and taiwan is a democratic nasjonal. hope ai chokes on this giant raleigh mecha...

where is the lynx now?

1. gen repros will soon be on Aliexpress, and all colors available :)

Mag 20 or M1 would look good on it. And period correct group. Doesnt have to be catalog perfect. Fork is missing anyway.

does look bad and does need repair ideally. It could crack if not fixed. but should be fully fixable, just costs some money, 500+ ?

klein painted their own frames and parts, also forks. the purple paint was not done at rock shox. the internals are standard rock shox.
