Re:

The forks could be original Trek, are they air adjustable ?

Whilst its not the done thing to question folks price tag, I have to say there isn't a great following (sadly) for Trek even thought Back in the day they were one of the most progressive and innovative mass market manufacturers.. Check out the archive section and go to manufacturers and go through the brochures for 91-93.

I can't remember seeing a flouro green as flouro citrus yellow was the main in your face colour so it shouldn't be too hard to date yours.

Forks is original Trek Mogul so yes air adjustable.
