| Re: Reynolds 853 Tubing Howdy, I have an '03 Lemond Maillot Jaune (Lemond's top end steel bike) that is 853. You won't find any info (useful anyway) as companies will never divulge trade secrets and whatnot. Any tubing from Reynolds, Dedacciai, Columbus, Easton can be considered comparable and a good choice for your bike. I'd be more concerned with who is making your bike and where it is made than by which brand of tubing it uses. For your reference my Lemond is fantastic. Good on ya for choosing steel!

I will second Jon's comment about the frame though. Other good steel frames can be had by high end stuff like Independent Fabrication or Waterford, and on the more reasonable end in companies like Fuji. Pat |
