Try a decent magnet on it. It shouldn't stick if it's titanium  :daumenhoch:

Interesting thread - many thanks for posting.

I would imagine with that distinctive rear-end something will come up on this eventually. Any faint stamping on the tubes as I know Reynolds did Ti tubing around the mid-80's? I have the WHEELS Ti prototype and the ex-team manager tells me at that time Ti welding was eye-wateringly expensive and tough to get done. Therefore you can assume somebody spent a fair bit of money and effort constructing this frame of yours, assuming it is from that era. Some nice bits and bobs on there too. Keep us posted with your findings.
