yeah, i bought mine as a frame and fork in 91 i think, from a shop in harrow. £100   

i dont think they came complete, did you ask the guy you got it from about its history?

91 is a guess, i reckon i was about 14.   could be wrong though.

that's a 91 bully piston race..i bought one from trend in 1991 thinking it was a piston stretch  (both very very unwise decisions)  the LOWEST bottom bracket ever on a bike! 
funnily enough i had some similar components to that.  but i know mine ended up in a bin in cheshire  :D

You ground the pedals when you crank over jumps, can be nasty

yeah i kept twanging my pedals if i leaned more than 2 degrees from vertical..   it was bloody great for barspins with that seattube angle and massive seatpost though!
