Was your bike once owned by @highlandsflyer ? Very similar frame number on his post here, https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/orange-clockwork-93-what-to-do.166174/post-1250781 but it is missing the last two digits compared to your bike.

It looks in good condition. I only have records for the Comp and Team models, so this is something different. Dates I have are 1993-1995 for Parkpre generally. If you share the frame number, I can probably tell you how old it is.

1992 frame, built in December, so most likely a 1993 model frame. Same manufacturer as this Carrara B52: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/carrera-b52-fixing-a-broken-heart.494700/ - you can see the similarities in the stays and dropouts. The same factory also made Konas and Rocky Mountain bikes.

Can the mods move to pre 97 bikes please?

Very nice. Pop up the frame number. I'm always very happy to add another early aluminium frame to my list! I can let you know if I find anything interesting.

Yes seems likely it's an IFT. Confirmed serial MJ4AAC032 on this example: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/marin-rocky-ridge-1994-finished.423619/post-3121644

I've been looking at Holdsworth Mistral bikes/frames and some seem to have 700c wheels and others 27x 1x1/4 Did they change at some point during the production run, or is it just owners swapping around? What size wheels were the frames built for? Anyone know? Lack of catalogues in the archive.

I like it a lot!

Looks like a post 1997 Cape Wrath to me. I should be able to give you an accurate date from the frame number if you post it here.

£20 bargain. Forks are worth that.

Have you still got this? Saw you'd been posting elsewhere recently, would you be able to share your frame number so I can add it to my list? I could do with a few more data points for tracking the years and build factories for these.

Judging by the graphics, these are a 1999 fork. They are in nice condition though.

Can you share the frame number please, before it goes? I don't have any Axis's later than 1995 recorded.

We can soon figure out if A-Pro or Fairly from the frame number, if the OP posts it.

The dropouts look very similar to this Pegasus Colorado / Nevada frame, except the two identified didn't have frame numbers. https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/pegasus-colorado.487054/
