Here is a thread by the previous owner, I must confess to have pinching a few bits off it so it won't be this exact spec.

Take a look at cjax's bike. Put a ruler along the line of the top tube and note where it crosses the rear wheel - about half way between hub and rim - that's a 16.rakas17":1r06velq said:
Next do the same thing with the eBay bike - it crosses the rear wheel just below the rim - that's an 18.
Incidentally, the eBay bike is a 95 Hahanna with original paint and decals. cjax's bike is 98 or later, can't tell you exactly as it's been resprayed, but it has 98 decals. A Lava Dome is a significantly better frame than a Hahanna.
i've already done that test and i agree. seems strange that this guy reckons he meaured it correctly.
cjax, do you know what year it is? i'm assuming its steel. i would've prefered the hahanna even though its a cheaper bike because i like the og paint and stickers and think it looks cool.
i might be up for a trade though, where are you based? i think this guy will give me a refund but i could get him to send it to you otherwise i'll lose postage fees.

if its a 94 then i'm deffo keen, is there an easy way to tell without stickers and stuff. like the way the cables are routed or seriel numbers? yours has an Aheadset on it, would that be a 1 inch one as compared to 1 1/8.
i prefer the earlier ones.
would you want similar money for yours?

Pretty sure they were 1 1/8" but would need to check.
Also i'll have to check the serial number and see if that throws up the age.
I'll get the full spec of the bike and let you know a price.
I paid £240 for it from scarlett but don't worry it won't be anywhere near that ammount
