The top tube cable guides remind me of the no name specials we sold back in the day.

The cable guides are pretty distinctive, so hopefully someone recognises them.

For anyone considering buying it, it's worth bearing in mind the bottom bracket threads may well be damaged, since it's got a Mavic bottom bracket. There's nothing wrong with those bottom brackets (super-smooth, a little heavy) but it does mean you might need to find another to get the correct chainline for the cranks you choose.

Mistral..... it would appear

Mistral MTB 90ies - green elevated chainstay

Guys - got this one recently and have no clue about a price indication. Is it crap or something to take. There is a XT 735/734/730 groupset mounted - would put it somehow early 90ies. Many thanks for educating me about the model and price point. And if someone is interested - PM me. BR

Looking on my phone so could be wrong but the top tube cable guides and rear brake hanger look different. I'm 99% sure we sold these, the cable guides are what makes me think that. The ones we sold were just far east frames with no manufacturer name that I can recall.
