1997/8 Clockworks and P7's are indistinguishable apart from the bottle bosses, the P7 has a sort of diamond shape that stands proud of the tubes, like a little lug.
Clearly that is true of the comparison between your 1995 P7 and your Clockwork, but your Clockwork is obviously earlier than 1995. I would be surprised if there was a difference in tube size between a P7 and a C16 of the same year.raymondluxuryyacht":3by4bkjh said:So we have an answer for this thread. The p7 has slightly bigger tube size. Measurements to follow.

The bottom bracket cable routing is by a funny little extra lip of metal so the cables run above the bottom bracket shell out of the way of mud and stuff.
The Prestige went over to Tange Ultimate Superlight half way through 92 and through until the end of 1993. The P7 essentially didn't come out until 94, although I have seen one in 93 colours and with a Prestige-style fork, suggesting late 93 but the owner believed it to be a 94.FluffyChicken":3ur97t0l said:#That'll be about the right year probably 1992 model.Jacqueslemac":3ur97t0l said:Very interesting.

They switched in ~1993, that same time I think they moved to the Prestige Ultimate tubing (without delving in to the depth of retrobike posts) to a top routed front mech but used a roller so a bottom pull front mech could be used, since Top-pull mechs had really only just been released.
