It looks like a Carrera, but I forget which model.

That be the one - 1993 Carrera Flex Quest. The notable thing is that it came with a Girvin Flexstem, hence the catchy name. Unsurprisingly most seem to crop up these days minus the stem...

IIRC these only have maybe a single Tange tube, maybe front triangle at the most. The rest was Hi-Ten. Probably better framesets out there to be had to be honest

I seem to recall the stems were Girvin copies. I worked in Halfords in the early 90s whilst at Uni and remember these had a clear elastomer, hence why I say Girvin copies. Didn't rate the bike much at the time so as other have said there is better bikes to be had.
