They were just known as Tange Aero. Super Cycle in Nottingham had a pile of about 25 rusting away in the celler. prob still there. but its out of bounds to the public.

I don't think the Tange Rhino had aero tubing (I may be wrong!) The Rhino was a great frame though!

SaMAlex · « **Reply #15 on:** October 25, 2007, 11:08 AM »

I think the Rhino had a grove in the down tube, like the top tube of a streat beat, or like the new Sunday frames have on the down tube.

(I could be wrong about that tho)

the later rhino 111 had taper tubing .gave it extra strengh i think

reyn · « **Reply #18 on:** October 25, 2007, 01:58 PM »

Dingobmxer · « **Reply #19 on:** October 25, 2007, 06:33 PM »

I am sure the Rhino had grooves in the tubing

DINGO

I recall these being readily avail in 80's & I used one of these for a Skyway TA copy back then > moving on from my original Burner! OK top tube not aero but with a pad...? Recently saw one on the bay & think was same frame used for a TA copy. Gary
