hmmm you prefer the shorter tt? This is the same size as mine and I would ideally have 1-2cm more.
Buy mine!

what bars are these?

Nice frame, the polished ones were supposed to be made by Sandvik, the later bead blasted ones by Litespeed (certainly the road frames in any case)
I'd say you underestimated the frame weight however, I've a 62cm Raleigh Ti road frame from the same era and it weighs 1650g, the same size Edge Ti road frame was heavier FWIW. I've seen a 61cm Reynolds 953 frame at 1590g and 953 is slightly lighter than the Ti 3/2.5 of the Edge, you might find the weight of your frame nearer the 1800g mark given the size... -

The frame actually weighs 1530g. So your theory's are wrong. Sorry.

Other way around - the bead blasted road frames were built by Sandvik and the model name was 'Forte'. The fancier polished 'Edge' frames were Litespeed. I wish I had never sold mine...

So it's actually called Forte. Goggled it and it seams right. Nice!
Thanks for the info! -

No need to get shirty, I based it on the info out there and what I know to be true from personal recollection, no theory at all.
Whatever I'm happy for you and it's still a nice frame -

Surprised to see this ancient thread bumped.
The frameset was sold to Finland 8 years ago. I just messaged the buyer as I am curious myself what's happened to it

I spoke to the engineers and frame builders who built the GT Titanium frames about these. Pretty cool to see one around after all these years. Update us if you hear back from the buyer--would love to get some info on its status. I dont think its made an appearance since it sold.

So I managed to get in touch with the buyer and to my own surprise he still has the frameset. I quote:
"However, i got kids and wanted to keep riding to work even when they got into kindergarten so i bought a gravelgrinder and a bike trailer. About a year ago i took it apart and the frame is on the wall."
The img attached is of the build which he used for years
