ahh, russian military ti. could hardly open a bike mag mid 90s without reading about it.

No idea what happened to them, do recall seeing a couple BiTD. Wonder who actually made the frames?

 

[cherrybomb]

I remember them. They were knocked up somewhere behind the curtain weren't they, not just using russian Ti?

I wonder if they are somehow related to Sibex.

Though a red star in Russia isn't exactly a definitive link.

I have a feeling that my wooly pluto is one of them.
According to the shop owner I bought my frame from it was made in Russia in mid nineties.
He sold few units, none came back as broken or damaged (he had a frame service back in these days).

Quality is obviously not a Merlin or other Ti brands but still it looks good.
Does not glow in the dark anyway
