Eugene Posted December 6, 2018 Share I think that it was on the aluminium Raleigh models - carbon fork and seat stays. A while ago I was looking at the carbon 3000 and did (eventually) track the manufacturer but I can't remember who. At a push I would go with Dedacciai but it may have been someone else. There may be someone left at Scott SA who may shed light on the matter.I doubt. Most of the senior people from Probike in those days have left and the bulk of the operation moved to Jhb when Scott took over. Jan Bergeman was the product manager and designer (if you can call it that) back then. He has gone back to Germany some years back. The 3000 Carbon was a completely different frame to the 2007. It was the same frame that they carried over when they changed the name to Axis. If you look very carefully at the shapes of the 3000, it looks very similar to the Fondreist and Viner frames of that era. Might even be the same frame or used the same mould. A work colleague's father is still there, I'll ask her to ask him. SwissVan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtoomDemoon Posted December 12, 2018 Share Thank you very much Andymann, Very helpful and I am impressed that you had a cycling weekly magazine from 2006 so readily available and in that condition. Andymann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andymann Posted December 12, 2018 Share I have a few left over from the old days - kept the ones that had interesting articles - like this one with the 3-hr 100km race. Funnily enough, I had just hauled it out to check the article on Floyd Landis, so I had seen the ad not more than a week ago! Quite a coincidence I would say Long Wheel Base and jdwet1980 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite a coincidence I would sayI used to get them every month and have kept almost every copy. I still enjoy reading the older ones from time to time. I started to lose interest in the magazine as their articles became repetitive and predictable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cabous9 Posted June 3, 2019 Share So today I got the bad news????. I took my Raleigh 7000 to my LBS to fit the upgrade groupset I bought. When he stripped the bike he found the crack on the drive side stay which was hidden by the chain wheels. Now for a new frame or can it be repaired?

Long Wheel Base Posted June 4, 2019 Share Sorry, missed the attach this file buttonAt least you spotted it before it failed on you while riding.On an OCD side note, is that on the RH side of the frame, right behind the BB? If so, your gatorskin is on the wrong way around. Wayne pudding Mol and Popit 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
