sorry to piddle on anyone's picnic but that is a very low end model from around 1994.

Doesn't bother me I really like the Handbuilt Falcon bikes.

Now different. I have converted it to singlespeed with semi-slicks.

Just need to put the brakes on and set them up, and swap the rear tire wth the same as the front and it's all finished.

Specs;
Bars, Stem, Seatpost, Bar ends: Kalin
Saddle: Selle Royal MTB Sport
Rims: Vuelta Scout
Hubs: Sachs T5 (road hubs(?))
Brakes, Crank, BB: Shimano Altus

It has a 16T Freewheel, and rides pretty well. Haven't taken it off road yet but that will probably happen soon. Curious to see what single speed is like

Do you happen to still have the bike/ know the seat post diameter?
