Looks indeed very like a Tomac Buckshot. CNC bracket, dropouts and cableguides etc... Only the seattube connection looks different

Sorry cableguides looks that they are on the toptube with Buckshots.... Or did they make various models?

Didn't Bradbury do all of Tomac's bikes? Could this be a Bradbury frame?
Sure looks like a Manitou HT in spots. Love the headtube emblem...

Forgot to mention- If my memory serves me correctly, those AC Hextreme cranks were first generation. They were prone to cracking easily and got bad rep. for that. Then they re-designed them into a more solid shape without the drillings via CNC- then forged the final design. Those newer ones will have "forged" screen printed on them, and were very good cranks. I have a pair of green anodized ones. But those first generation ones are rare- have you seen them around lately?

Indeed- I did a search for Psycho Psycles and found one review on MTB.com!
Custom Cali shop it seems, couldn't find a builder name though- they did custom paint jobs and builds it seems and has a review or two in some older mags from the 90's. Nice work! and a rare frame it seems.
