My point was that giving the model of the bike (especially an old MTB) is meaningless when parts have been changed out.
You need to know what is on the bike as at today, rather than when it was sold 18/19 years ago.
For example, I have a 1995 Marin Pine Mountain, the only original parts are the rear hub, frame and crank arms. In the last 21 years everything else has either broken,been upgraded, worn out or just replaced with other parts.
