what is it you want to know? reynolds 501 was a low end tubing (500 being the lowest) so its probably only the main frame thats reynolds. the rear end will be hi tensile steel as will the fork. its not a model i remember selling but they made a lot of random bikes in the early 90,s and thats where im guessing its from. they made a yukon in 89 which also had a 501 frame.

try searching for a Raleigh Kalahari, they were the similar models. In this case they were low end bikes like the Yukon but the frames are lugged and just a wee bit nicer than the normal run of the mill stuff.
I had one! Black with beige/brown/orange graphics.
Reynolds 501 main tubes, lugged nicely built frame with a O/S headset and good set of forks.
Its the same frame as the montage/mirage/discovery.
Nice riding bike - loved mine and rode it miles and miles.
Enjoy

Sat on top of the Raleigh mainstream range above the Mirage (sharing the frame as mentioned) with Suntour XCM or XCE components, only made for 1 year in 1990 IIRC.
A friend had one and it was an OK bike and served him well even if it was a little gate like.
