I have an `89 Animus TT being re-built at the moment - I`ll have a look inside the tubes and see if I can determine the construction method - I can confirm the downtube is 30mm o/d and I don`t think that is a stock seamless titanium 3al-2.5v - though if they rolled and welded the tubes then who knows what the original titanium specs are. The welding and forming on the early Animus is exceptional, especially around the area of the TT position mounted down tube shifters and internal cable entry points.

Yep, pretty sure its double/triple passed puddle welded so maybe not classed as fillet brazed - that previous thread mentioned was a bit hot under the collar rather...

Pics and details of the bike coming soon, Dan.
Just a friendly tap on the shoulder Dan - looking forward to your post
