I seem to remember....
It was actually made by Lynskey for On-One in about 2007. It was a collaboration project for two models; this Ti456, and the Ti29er. 250 of each were made. Lynskey had not long re-started and were keen to start making more modern hardtails and 29ers, which was why they collaborated with that bloke at On-One. The Ti29er was essentially a copy of the Inbred 29. You can see the similarity in the downtube between the Ti29er and Ti456. Vertical oval at head tube, Horizontal oval at bb. I bought a Ti29er which still have. There are some pics of it in one of my threads.
The Ti456 won hardtail of the year in a couple of the mags at the time. Guy Kestevan called it the best hardtail eva. This has the chainstay brace on the rear NDS so isnt one of the very, very first, but one of the original 250. Later Ti456s were made by Van Nicholas and then Walty.
GLWS!

Thanks guys.
I do wonder who made it, as cannot find any online with the cool rear dropouts. Reminds me of the welding on an old fat Chance ti frame .
Will leave it here for a few days , and the try something elsewhere .
