As far as I can tell it is a custom build by Pete Corbin from Sydney. Forgot to weigh the forks - sorry. They are also 531 Tandem tubing. The previous owner reckons that it was 1996 however the 126mm rear spacing and the top of BB cable guides suggest otherwise to me. Possibly NOS at the time.
Cheers,
Cameron

It's a lovely frame, I can't decide whether I'm brave enough to ride it around with 130mm hub jammed in or find a 126mm 8 speed setup.
I've read due to the heat treating 753 can crack when you jam 130mm in 126 stays and ride it around for a prolonged time. But I've seen no evidence yet and that's probably one persons opinion that has been copied and pasted over and over in internet forum land..
Anyway, back on topic!
