I did notice that the Orange frames have a seat tube that tapers toward the BB whereas your white frame doesnt seem to.

Well that’s confirmed it to me it’s not an Alu o then, I have 8 aluminium o frames between very early 1991 1st batch, to the 4th batch. And they are all 27.6.. Sorry

Just one thing before I get rid of that paint: Does the SN help to have at least an idea of some possible brands for this bike? Only to reduce the search area a bit

Unfortunately no, as that factory would have made frames for lots of brands, many unheard of in Europe.

Re:
Not read the other posts past the serial number.
But my input.
It has the powerstays of the A-Pro made aluminium-o.
It doesn't look to have the replaceable hanger (so it's the 1992 model, first two batches).
It has a stay, which adds to the first two batches.
It doesn't have riveted cable guides, so that makes it the second batch.
That batch is A106 (1991 June).
Yours is A910(1)
Which could possibly be a 1989 Nov model for the 1990 years
Or a different coding and 1991 Jan, it could be as it has 8 numbers and not seven.
(Cheshire1980, did the Feb 1991 batch use this coding and not the newer style?)
Either way, it is earlier than the Aluminium-o.
I'll leave it there.
Caveat - at least last time I looked it's been some years now.
