Closest match I have is this Al Carter Arkansas https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/al-carter-arkansas.480143/

A friend of mine had a set of 1.9 Velociraptors, an original set from the mid 90s. We went for a ride probably around 2010 and the rear tyre lost most of its knobs on that one ride... May be worth buying new if it's for a rider.

@kingoffootball is the man for GT frame numbers. He may be able to help identify it.

Should be able to tell the age from the frame number. I'd also like it for my records - can you share it please?

Such a thing exists? Every day is a school day. Congrats!

Looks like they changed manufacturers between 1993 and 1999....

Thanks Trebz. I can't tell if this is a joke or not! It's an entertaining watch regardless.

MK1 and MK2 are slightly different. Also slight differences if it's set up as QR or through axle.

Never seen an Emmelle Aluminium Classic before. Can anyone share their frame number? I'd be interested to see which factory produced them.

Out of interest, did you find a frame number?

Secondly, to muddy the waters, this Emmelle Lightning. I wrongly assumed that the 'AM' prefix was exclusive to Barracuda. This one proves me wrong, although they're both Moore & Large brands. AM98014581

Found a couple more, two days apart. Barracuda Slalom AM98078443 Has quite possibly the worst pair of RST forks I've ever seen. Also interestingly has the frame number on the swingarm, not the main frame.

Whats the frame number on this one Shepp? The early Mongoose TI I have on record was built at the same factory as the Orange Vitamin T/T2 frames.

Red, Blue, Yellow and Green mutipack on Amazon for £5.99 Might help someone else out! https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pirhosigma-Colors-Bicycle-Coloured-Plastic/dp/B08VNP19HM/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top

The Condor look nice to me, pricey though.
