Hi I'm new to the forum and looking for some info on my frame

I have a early 90s dawes giro competition 500 in fantastic condition,it has shimano rx100 groupset.I have been googling for days trying to find more info on the frame,like the tubing ect. all I can seem to find is that most dawes cromo frames were reynolds but my frame has no stickers to say it is? the only stickers it has say dawes cromo and another which says fuji race lite.

Any info would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Is the Fuji on the fork? I suspect it's generic 4130 cromo for the frame. It's nothing bad, just a good solid ordinary tubeset of reasonable quality.

hi and thanks for the response
that's what I was thinking,it was the fuji decal that was throwing me off as its on the frame? could that be reference to the forks?

Not really.

It's a basic club bike from the 90s. Not earth shattering, or worth a lot of money, but OK.
