tod miller:
^^^ I read heat treated tubes too.  Doesn't say anything about tri-moly.  And I think Chad would be out of his mind if he sold an "after market" frame with mild steel tubing. 

byke:
I really don't think it is 4130.
As generally (or at least in the past) it's not a grade that is used in the far east.

D:
Ah on the other hand, everyone seems to love the frame, and even people who are very experienced and have critical eye and bike building experience themselves (Brett D. ) all report that it's tough as hell and very well made, so maybe I'm reading too much into this.     

D:
I was curious about grades of chromoly so I looked it up.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/41xx_steel

Sanko is evidently a brand name.  I found a similar discussion on frame manufacturing here...
