Identify Retro Aluminium Mountain bike late 1990s?

well if we could see a pic of the whole bike, from the drive side, that would be much easier to tell what it might be... right now we're about as likely to ID the brand of the fridge in one of the pics

DEORE XT - identify the Frame ? I'd be impressed if anyone can recognize it ! by L 8, on Flickr

SEE pictures - • SDG I beam 2014 SADDLE and SEAT POST
• Hope Seat clamp
• Deore XT FD-M738 FRONT MECH
• Cane creek Headset
• Deore XT ST-M70 Levers
• MANITOU SX TPC FORKS

Rocky Mountain, Marin, Santa Cruz, Specialized, Trek, GT or SCOTT ??
Frame Numbers:
WTU 2223716 F

Process of elimination - I know it's not a KONA so thanks for that - any offers welcome please - It is very light weight - I was hoping it is a KLEIN but if someone can tell by the frame shape please.....

Definately not a GT, Doesn't look like a Klein, if that serial number startted WTU then Trek, but Vtu... (and still not a Klein)

Many Thanks Indeed for your help - a Trek it is - Excellent appreciated! "Trek has used the WTU designation in their serial numbers from the mid-90s to today. Trek has used these numbers not only for Trek bikes but also for their Klein, Gary Fischer and Lemond brand bikes."

Any value in the tyres ?
Rear: Marin Lite (26 x 2.10 120 TPI)
Front: Panaracer Smoke Lite (26 x 1.9)

Tyres as old as the bike (WTU 2223716 F) - 1990s - want to replace with slick tyres - but is there interest to sell the original retro tyres ?
Knowledge and wisdom appreciated
