OMG, i have just today put 2 and 2 together! @kingroon your black Psyclone used to belongh to me! i bought it in 1998/9 as a last year model when i first got in the trade working for a dodgy bloke at a shop called Solent cycles in hythe near southampton (not to be confused with solent cycles over in fareham), i used it for a couple of years as my main bike, it was black, with yellow/red/orange stickers. i was encouraged to sell it and replace it with a Giant when i worked at a Giant dealer, i sold it to a friend, it was then stolen, by chance the guy that bought the stolen bike decided to repaint it, a really shitty powdercoat yellow, it was brought back in to the shop that i used to workm at and was recognised because the bottle cage bolts had been painted over, they phoned me and told me it looked like my Psyclone, so i said if they picked at the powder coat on the bottlecage bolts that had been painted in place then 2 should be red and 2 should be gold, sure enough they were! we called the police and asked for advice about what to do, they said call the "customer" and tell him to come in and we'll meet you there, well the "customer" came in but the police didn't bother, we told him it was stoeln and he legged it! so it went back to Aaron the guy i sold it to with most of the buts he had built it with.
i told him to get it properly soprted out but he didn't have the moeny ands was happy with his replacement bike so it got sold to my buddy Rob who worked at GA cycles as the saturday guy, he had it properly refinishged at Argos cycles in bristol, then never got around to building it, eventually he sold it, he told me it went out of the country, and that was you buying it!!
i only reallsied because Rob came in to my shop today, he is user @Robp123 and we got talking about it and he said he'd seen it on here, when i get a few mins i'll upload a pic of the original paint to help identify the exact model year, i think 97
