Is this a real Yeti?

[Scrat]

Obviously it isn't!!

Come up cheap for sale
It says its Easton, is obviously steel
The rearend looks all wrong
Is def 1 1/4" headtube
Old either way

What is it......

Opinions?

don't look like one tome . Your right the rear is all wrong

 

[MJN]

No,rear end is all wrong,although they did an alloy frame with no loopstay I don't think they ever built a steel frame without or with a wishbone seatstay.

It looks like my Mongoose Iboc. I just don't recognize the thingies on the back of the seattube.

dont think its a yeti
but it looks an interesting period fake
not seen a steel frame like that before

ask him to take a piccy from the other side to see cable guides too

Didn't think IBOC's ha 1 1/4" headtubes,maybe an old Alpinestars Cromega?

My kokopelli has no loop stays .

It does look very similar :? :? I take it the cable stop mounts are on the same side as Chris's ?

The extended seatpost design even look the same to my untrained eye, the tubes , and the way they are mitered into the headtube , even that looks the same... Coincidence ? mmm mm The plot thickens..
