Yeah the 70 mm BB is a bit nutty (but according to [MENTION=333224]juvela[/MENTION] not crazy weird) but there are some webpages talking about this.

I can't tell from the tubing sticker if it's no 2 or 3. Does your bike say?
In the past I've gone by the word of [MENTION=84826]randyjawa[/MENTION] on this, as he's both the SHS and SHT listed on his mytenspeeds website. He's listed somewhere that it's Tange #2, but frankly flicking the tubes with my fingernail gave me a pretty good indication of how thin they are.

Even in the catalog, the specs don't say "main tubes", or "throughout", nor does it list fork specs. Agreed that having the stays be hi-ten isn't all that important...but I'd love to know for sure!

*EDIT: The sticker on mine was long gone
