I picked up a giant boulder frameset (no suspension/feels heavy enough to be true steel) with derailers/shifters(SIS Indexed), brakes,sakae triple crankset, pretty much everything and in fair shape other then the no wheels part. So, how do I narrow it down? Good site for info etc? Or does someone just know the answer? it's a 20" with oversized mountain bike tubes it says.
Pictures as follows:

I can't see the pic from here but my guess is a '95. Bikepedia is a good source for ID info:

I've sorted through all the base model Boulder's on there with no match I am how ever looking at all the others, but it only let's me go back as far as 96...

Edit: You were right it does indeed appear to be 1995 giant boulder, it was called a "giant boulder 26" though, so it wasn't listed in the direct section.. a minor search and bammo. Thanks a lot! Now all this puppy needs is some wheels.
