X-lite full suspension mtb

[Curious Chris]

Is this a Ray Trimnell x-lite full suspension bike from the 90’s . The crank has been replaced but the rest of the bike looks period correct. Can’t find any pics or info on this bike at all apart from an article saying that Ray made full sus prototypes in the 90’s . Only decals on frame are an x-lite sticker. Apologies for bad pics.

Looks like a ‘Fast Eddie’:

That would make total sense as the man who owns it now lives in the north east not far from birtley where it would have been made

Thanks again

That looks to have had a very poor repair done on the seat tube/top tube.
