Hey guys,

I will not claim or pretend to be an expert, but I am 99.9% sure that I recall reading that Tenax was Schwinn proprietary and was identical to SP in every way except that the quality control was looser. That means same wall thicknesses and butting (but with more variation) and no seams...

Happy holidays,

I thought the Tenax label was for Schwinn. Didn't they build a factory in Mississippi in the 80s? Phil Brown Not ridin', paintin', today in San Rafael, Calif
