Its very thorough indeed and probably the most disgusting paint scheme ive ever seen. It takes a 130mm dishless rear wheel, which makes the back end look like its been squashed together. God knows what the threaded boss on the back of the seat tube is for, It will make a handy place for a light or a mudguard. Its from 1989 I believe.
