Slightly different design DX pad set

So in that first ad the frame decal says Hot Heart. So is that one because there has been confusion before whether those Tange frames with the heart gusset's are actually called something else. A Mamba?

this was debated a while ago and the info was that the one in that pic was an earlier model.(apparantley $:-\$ )
wicked bike though, wouldn't mind one.

That bike is quality could have put some nice Chrome Bars on it though.

Hmm inspiration to build a bike with all Shimano parts perhaps?

doing that right now ian, full shimano groupset but singlespeed. Bit slow though

wouldn't mind a set of those pads to go with it too.
