I have an NOS Chrome Tange/Tioga Rhino Frame not sure of the year but I think it's one of the earlier ones pre 1983 I am guessing. It has a gusset like the old 1979-80 Kuwahara KE-1 as it was meant to be the replacement for the fragile single gusset KE-1.

Does anyone have any info or pictures of any Tange/Tioga Rhino Frames as I know there were a few slightly different models made the Rhino, Rhino II and Rhino III and Flying Rhino so I can see exactly which one mine is.

Any pictures of Framesets complete bikes or any info you might have would be great as I can't seem to find much about them anywhere.

I would post a picture but am having Photo Bucket problems at the momemt. If anyone can post the picture for me that would be great.

Thanks from bodamus

thats a Rhino3, same as the one i got

possibly the strongest oldschool frame ever!

best info & pics i can find is HERE

what we really need is some repop stickersets $:-\$

bodamus · « **Reply #7 on:** July 10, 2007, 10:19 AM »

Mine is the same as yours but it doesn't have those indents in the tubes my tubes are just round which makes me think it's possibly earlier than a Rhino III ?

There is a serial number on the outside of the left rear dropout which is J3446358.

Hmmm?

Showtime that was only real picture I could find of one aswell thanks. So are these Frames pretty rare then. Your right some repop decals would be great.

Ron Burgundy thanks for putting a picture of one up.

Thanks from bodamus
