Raleigh Dyna Tech appreciation and information thread
- Thread starter drystonepaul
- Start date
Setting myself up for some abuse here but anyone fitted a disc mount to one of the old Dynatech bonded frames ?
I have 92 Diablo which has a very skinny tubed rear end so am I risking putting too much through it with either a clamp on mount or even getting some tabs welded on. The seatstays look to be held on with a small bolt and I know the chainstays are bonded using 20 year old glue so will it just fold up with the first pull on the rear caliper ?! :shock:

Some better Photographs.

and RSP 250
I'll be replacing the Pace RC35 MXCD with some rigid RC30 forks - once someone sells me one, or I can source one.
Replacing the Smoke and dart with some lightweight Michelin Mountain Dry 2
(will save a couple of lbs or more in weight with these changes)
And the Black Mavic 316 is going to be replaced with a NOS silver polished Mavic 316 I've just bought. As I scratched the Black one up (the surface only)

I think thats the sensible and safe option tbh just I have a nice pair of disc only wheels and some spare brakes available so that was guiding my thinking. A BB7 on the front will be good enough paired up with a V on the back just got so used to discs that that awful noise of grit wearing away a rim wall will take some getting used to again.
OK so next question - can I fit some 420mm RC31's to it or is that going to cock up the front end too much ?

Made in 1994 so either mid/late 1994 or early 1995 model year.
Unfortunately retrobike archive is missing 1994 & 1995 catalogues but hoping to rectify this when I start searching the Raleigh archives held by Nottingham City Council.
