1983 Tange
1983 Tange
Love the aero tubing on these bikes Tange Laser or Akasiu ??
So I scored this frame and fork today Was told its a 1983 Tange (any help will be appreciated ) Love the tear drop top and bottom tubes AND the tear drop forks... I don't have much more info on this one Not many in the museum and not much info to be found !! Have now replaced the 3 piece cranks for a set of one piece looks more of a 80s ride in my opinion !!

Re: 1983 Tange
Look like Tange ARX forks, not sure about the frame but you can always post it in the "name it" section and you will most likely get an answer there. I like the gusset design, small but cool. A Tange frame typically has serial number stamped on the BB starting with a letter T.

I can post it for you if you like. You need to be a pro member to upload pics. I highly doubt that is a Tange made frame though. It looks like an Akisu built bike to me. Pics of the serial number would help.
Still searching for my missing bikes from BITD. 1979 Blue Max serial: CI9 221346 and 1977 Webco serial: 42667. Both were last seen at Spoke and Sport Bicycles in Spokane, WA around 1984. $600 reward if found!!

Definitely not Tange made.
