Found this Technium Tri-Lite at a garage sale for $5. Wondering if anyone can identify the model of the frame. Or was it the gruppos that set model heirarchy?
Please forgive the scenic backdrop, and the previous owner's comfort bar arrangement. Serial #R803970196 indicates it's 1987. Not sure what's original on it. Maybe the crankset and front derailleur? It's got steal lugs, steel headtube, 6061 aluminum front triangle tubing, steel chainstays and seatstays, and forged (I think) dropouts with adjuster screws.
Parts Bin Special Gruppo:
Sakae SX double crankset
Suntour Infinity 5000 FD
RSX brifters 2x7
RX100 brakes, RD, and hubs
Shimano HG 7 sp cassette
Sun Mistral 700c rims
Centurian dropbars
Cromed steel fork with eyelets
Alas, the frame is too small for me at 52 cm.
