Waimanly old hybrid Bike - help/advice wanted!

[SpeedSloth]

Can anyone help me by giving some information about Waimanly bikes or what bike this is, when it was made ect?
I got it off Facebook marketplace for £25, its in ok condition and its pretty fast! Also has a really cool and unique paint job.

Google reveals that Waimanly still manufacture bikes and are based in China: http://www.waimanly.com/us/. Also see: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/waimanly.422394/. The frame and forks discussed in the brief Retrobike thread appear to have been of a fairly low, generic quality.

Your bike does have a great paint job but the components look like they're from the lower end of the spectrum. I suspect your bike was also a relatively cheap one from the early 1990s. If you like riding it, just enjoy it for what it is. However, one or two well chosen upgrades, such as lighter weight tyres, might increase your enjoyment further.
