Re:

yeah, i just checked both of my P7 build threads, both have the diamond shaped bottle bosses and also the same style canti hanger, the c16 canti hanger looked cheap and nasty by comparison, just a folded bit of steel with the cable stop on it.

ill go get a proper photo of the cable hanger now. but it would seam that it has the nicer cable stay and round bosses??? I will try and get a shot of the frame number to but its quite faint

I see you still have the diamond shaped decal on the seat tube. Judging by the colour it looks like a series 8 decal, stating micro butted cromoly tubing which again indicates a P7, others may correct me if I am wrong, but I think the c16 had a series 7.2 decal indicating cromoly tubing.

I believe so, stickers look oe but they could just be old I guess, everything apart from the bottle bosses point to a P7. Plus the story from the original owner?

Re:

Re:

i'd say 1994 P7, the round bottle mounts could just be an anomaly, Orange were known to have several batches per year some with differences, seat post sizes on some P7's were notable changes.

Do you have the serial number of your 94 as it could be a batch change given the slight differences.
