bobafett:
Like that ;)

xGoose:
Very nice build, I like these obscure Tange frames.

It looks like one of those Tange Hot Hearts like the one in the tange/tioga/takagi thread (that I can never find) but the gussett looks a bit different (obviously not the one with the heart in it!  :coolsmiley:. Can anyone confirm it as Ive never seen one (but would kill for one! ;))

monkian:
I know what your mean - The Hot Heart (Mk1) / Shimano 5000 are very similar looking frames 8)
There were two versions of these with different backends & drop outs (Classic Tange / Kuwie x3 Hole & Giant - triangle hole with small chain tensioner hole)

I think the geometry must be pretty much the same as the Giant DO version but the Pug has a slightly different boomerang gusset (shorter top edge).
It's closer to some of the Pro Sights in Oz but none of these others had a Euro BB & I don't think Tange Mangaloy tubes were used on them ???

There's a couple of really good threads here:
