Bikes: 198? Sport Racing Frame of unknown origins, 1992 Marin Bear Valley, 1970 Raleigh Sport

199? Univega Via De Oro

I picked up a Via De Oro last week at my preferred LBS (shout out to Hampshire Bicycle Exchange!), but there is like zero information out there, nevermind pictures. I don't have any of my own pictures at the moment, nor the serial number, but I was hoping someone out there might have some information to help start my search. I am leaning towards a 1993 model based off what I could read on bikepedia because it's a steel frame with suntour shifters and whatnot. It's also a super bright sky blue with "Lawee Design" in neon orange. Any help would be appreciated. I'll update with some pictures when I get home.

Also, from what I've read so far, I got a pretty serious steal. I paid $70, it is all original with literally no scratches, dents, or broken anything. There was a big U lock stuck on it which is why I think they didn't care for it. I paid $5 and a thank you to a friendly welder and it's good as new. I actually didn't pay $70 bucks cash, I traded in a beat 1970s Motobecane Mirage Mixte and came out even

EDIT: Turns out I had it wrong...I have a Via Activa-SE. Hrm.
