What bike is it?

Up till about 93 there were plenty of MTBs with 130mm rear ends. 135 only became standard when 8-speed came in.

Correction 7 speed was the beginning of 135mm OLN spacing.

For sure. But the standard only became universal later on. There was a crossover period of a few years where Shimano had MTB hubs in both. Hub shell was also wider on 135mm hubs than on 130.

I remember selling Raleigh Summits in 93 with 7 speed and 130mm spacing,
