So we're on page 4 and still no bike brand? I guess it doesn't matter anymore. Question has been answered, dude wanna keep it a mystery. Is there really a point to keeping this thread open? Just sayin... it's never gonna come out in the open, so why bother trying to find out? Just close the thread and be done with it.

If it's got living tissue around an exoskeleton, it's a T-800. No living tissue, T-700. Simple and no Italian required.

These two pages give some detailed insight into the differences between T-700 and T-800.

Okay, I'll be the bigger man and offer some help. If you really want to find out what grade CF your frame is made of, you can tell for sure the next time you change your chain.

If it were my bike, I'd look for a label on the frame itself. I'd trust that over a webpage somewhere.
