I got this on a bike which had a lot of nice kit, including some ringle and grafton, so it could be something nice.
I’ll let pictures do the talking but it’s 1&1/8 with a canti brake hole (that combo might help date it), the ti stem tube is ovalised, distinctive thicker section to the bar centre and neat welds.
Any ideas who made this?
Cheers!

Re:

Yep, had a close look again this morning and it’s certainly the combo shown in the ‘93 brochure. Plus all my retro mtb have 1” headtubes.
Should really be on a Marin so I’ll pop this up for sale later. Plus all my retro mtb have 1” headtubes.
Thanks again for your help, especially ‘lockedmyselfout’. Top sleuth.
