It looks very original, including the saddle. I don't know whether the paint scheme was an alternative to the main red/white or a mid-year model, stepping towards the fluorescent colours of the 90s.

Any more details on that fork? That might be something I could sneak into my luggage next time I am in Indonesia.

Weren't hybrids pretty well established by 1991?

Awesome! That's the model I presume mine was before the modification. It would be interesting to compare serials and whether yours has Gipiemme dropout forks - from the photo it looks like yours might have eyelets unlike mine. Please post details once you have it!

Dark Zolatone + Afterburner stays = 1991 model I think. Eldridge was neon red and Pine Mountain neon orange, so is it possible yours is a neon red that has lightened over time?

The chosen spec for the different models seems very scattershot.

I bid on this too, but only planned to build it as a winter bike so I'm glad it will get proper attention.

I'd second using Wise. I've been using them for a long time for transfers, purchases from abraod and while living abroad. Nothing but good experiences both technically and with their customer service.

I'm not going to be a lot of help here, I am afraid. I don't have any K serials logged, so I would guess that's another factory they started using for production in the late 90s. For all the other factories I have logged, the year is identifiable from the serial. However, from this one that...

RS1s, I think. RS2,3,4 went to four bolts to hold the spider in place before the later lockring style. Nice haul!

Did you check this thread? https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/middleburn-crank-history.75203/ Not as straightforward as a simple timeline, but a lot of good info on there.

Bump.
