Seeking Info On Elevated Chainstay Bike-"Revolution"

[DesertRyder]

The seller describes the bike as "Revolution Lightweight Mountain Bike".

I guess a 90's vintage? I can make out thumb shifters and a quill stem. I asked for pics of the drive side and a component list.

In the meantime, Does anyone have any info on this bike? Revolution brand or model name? I don't know the frame material but the tube sizing leads me to believe aluminum.
It has an Alien look about it....

A couple more pics the seller sent me. Still waiting on hand controls and the right side pic.
I don't think the seller knows much about the bike

More pics
Part of the logo on the top tube is a USA flag

Searches on google might connect it to Edinburgh Bicycle Cooperative.

This could be a Pacific cycles frame, they were often rebranded

Here's my way too small steel one from around 10 years ago

And whatever yours turns out to be, it's definitely into the 1990s

not sure if this is a Edinburgh Bike Coop "Revolution" bike
The logo was quite different, older ones

Also not if this is a Pacific.

Is this offered in US?

In any case, it's definitely a nice ride
Also the components are nice! An XCPro, with the brown chain rings roughly from 1992. The DiaCompe SS5 levers had been launched in 1991.

Just the saddle cover, but maybe also saddle or stem seem to be shitty crap, maybe replaced once.

Go for it! We would like to see or learn even more.

As said, parts are 90's, has a pretty fork but hideous dropouts in the back.
The contrast.

Interestingly MD rear end with a normal front end 7sp MD being 1992, most would have 8sp MD fitted in 1993.

The rear drop out isn't even close to the same. Thanks for the suggestion though.
