Hi

Anyone, know much about coyote (american frame builders) and their titanium
frames?

have they gone out of buisness?

where could I get one from, even if not brand new?

I am in England(UK) but relpies from knowledgable Brits and Americans
welcome.

Would like to get hold of one. Other Ti frames I seen are not quite to my
liking for various reasons.

thanks

In 1997 Coyote went bankrupt and the management bought Reynolds bicycle
tubing, which still exists. Here is their info, before they went belly up:

States and Europe, Callaway and Cobra are the major customers. The

There was also a Coyote Ultralight company, which was based in the UK.
They are gone, too.

Hi

Thanks for the info.

From you last statement it appears its not the US company I seeked, but the
UK one, as my once bike was an Ultralite!! which I do still have a photo of.

Errr, is this the same coyote that still make the DH3 frame? I think
based just down the road from me called 'concept somthingorother'? see
this pic and see if the logo is the same:

If it is, their phone number is 0161 7278508 (UK). I've been to their
HQ a few times. All their frames are made by a random chinese/taiwanese
factory but seem to be pretty good quality (hence my username and i
have a coyote F2) 😉 The guy who was in charge of the designs and stuff
left IIRC but has been replaced so should be no problems, unless you
want the designs as they went with the man!
