Shimano badged tange aero with trx forks?
« on: August 30, 2014, 11:45 AM »
Eh up lads, just stumbled on one of these and wondering if it was an actual model or just a tange aero someone has stickered up?
seems to be one on the museum but restored so still unsure  :-\

Tange made a shed load of frames for different companies, my memories crap but Im sure they made some Kuwahara models amongst others, I think they even made one of the British companies frames!!

Those Shimano logo's are not the old style (80's) so i would say it's been re stickered at some point Clint .

Nice frame and forks though  8)

Hmmm it's advertised as an 83 but no serial pic to confirm  :chin:

To get an ID you'll need to know if it's got Aero seat-stays or round?
Also round or oval top & down-tubes?

Could well be a Shimano:

Just checked out the ones in the museum and they have the same logo's ....... Looks like im wrong ;D

Might be worth PMing Khaled (spartacus) as he has one  ;)

I always thought the old Shimano logo was this one ...

Being a freestyle master  ;D this is not usually my cup of tea but the drops on the frame and forks are near immaculate.
£160 sound about right? :-\
