    ‘95 Pace RC200 F5 ‘Mystery Machine’

    I think the dropout may have been made by Hope which is why the anodising is a different shade. I've got one knocking around in the spares box from when I ran Hope C2s on my F5. It takes the No.1 caliper (err, I think!). It's whichever caliper has the mounting hole to the right of the piston...

    Pace frame

    Seller reckons it's a 1" head tube which rules out F6 and later. Round seat tube with round seat clamp rules out F3 and earlier. Normally the frame number would include the F number but that one looks a bit 'non-standard'.

    Best 2k clear coat spray ?

    Yeah, Tootyred makes a good point. I'd stick with acrylic lacquer or anything that doesn't contain isocyanates. '2K in a can' is cheap and easy but there's no filter on the market that will stop isocyanates. If you want to do it safely you need an air-fed hood which sort of defeats the point...

    Gary Fisher and the Amazing 1992 RS1

    The bike shop under the arches was Cykik. I got my Gary Fisher Montare from there in summer '92. The guys who ran it were really helpful and I'd frequently drop in for a natter and to see what was new in the cabinet of exotica. The Mert Lawwill-designed RS1 eventually morphed into the Yeti DH6...

    ORANGE P7 ID info help please

    1992 pre-dates the P7 so might be a Prestige maybe? It's got the triangular hole in the rear canti stop which I think only Prestiges had. Might have gone back for a respray after Orange had ran out of Prestige decals.

    Where’s Sinnerman?

    LGF - I don't think you were the real target, ironically. The absolute nut job who started it was posting under 'their' full name which I thought was a bit suspicious. When I googled them I found a law graduate in Bournemouth who had applied to be a school governor with a well written CV and...

    ~1988 "Jett"

    The head tube lugs and seat tube/seat stay junction are slightly reminiscent of a Mountain Goat Whiskeytown Racer and they were based in Chico as well so possibly a connection there, maybe? Either way, that's a nicely made frame and a cool paint job. Good find!

    If it's Langdale then one of my favourite Lakeland pubs is about 2 miles further back (Wainrights Inn).
