I think the serial number would make it a August 1991 frame. The more I see your 'O' the more I want it! Super bike mate.

yeah well pleased was hoping it would be quite easy as was mainly just grubby but well looked after.

just a few niggles now like the outer cable i used on the back brake is slightley too long cant bring myself to leave it so will change that tonight and fully true the wheels once ive had a spin

Definately a later one judging by the top tube cable routing - I'll guess at the frame number being something like A108 XXXX (Aug '91)...... but happy to be proven wrong!

Looks great now you've cleaned it up. The RC35's look much better. Wasn't far off my guess at the month of frame manufacture either.
My orange/ white fade ( Now Fibbles'!!) is frame number A108 6840
..... only 50 out from yours!!
The 19" wasn't quite right for me so it's being rebuilt on a 17" frame. (A9102 0020).... making it #20 from the first batch of 'O's.
There was a discussion on 'O' frame numbers and batches here -
