Whilst I’ve never seen under the paint the elemental symbol Ti (titanium) and C (carbon) are present on the down tube just above the Van Tuyl logo and from searching up some other Van Tuyl frames without paint it seems the builder has made a few frames this way. Pics for reference
Nice builds.
Is that Van Tuyl really a titanium lugged carbon tubed frame? I may be wrong but it looks like alu to me.
