Agreed fguki has an amazing bike! I need to get mine cleaned up to look half that good. And thanks fguki for sharing the additional info! (and politely tolerating me highjacking your thread.) That article was a neat read, though definitely with some anti-Russia sentiment.
If you don't mind me asking, what is the serial number format for your Raleigh Torus XT Titanium 1993? Curious if the titanium frame i won might be similar...unfortuantely it's stripped of all decals, a dump find that was reclaimed. Mine is D36###.
Thanks in advance (if possible)!
Hello! Found you looking at the DynaTech Torus posts! I think that's what i won at a raffle, and am trying to learn more about them. I see you have both a Torus LX and an XT? Whats the difference between them?
Thanks! Roberta
Now were just debating whose bike it will actually be - his or mine! It fits him better but he has a chromoly Trek Mountain Edge I bought him since he didnt want to spend money on a bike! :p
I know! Hubby (who normally gets upset if i spent over $200 on a bike) looked at me when I told him i won the raffle and told me, "You'd better go donate some more money to them!"
Thanks! Based on the pics, it looks like I likely have a similar Raleigh bike!
See the comparison pics below - where the seatstay meets the dropsouts looks very similar (eg no fancy cutout work), as does the odd-styled cable-guide! Yours is in MUCH better condition though. Mine does have a boss...
Would you be willing to share some pics of what your dropouts look like? I won a similar looking bike at a bike charity auction that rebuilds bikes - they claimed it was a 91-92 era Litespeed titanium MTB but I've since confirmed it isn't. Now trying to figure out what it IS!
My bike lacks any...
