Thanks for your feedback, at least now I know it's from 1995 :-).
The components in the photos are those currently on the bike.

It also came to me derailleur-less, so it now has a Shimano Altus groupset.

The crankset was Shimano FC-MC18 ...

It had only 2 Blackspire chainrings (Canadian).
It now has the Shimano FC-M171 triple 42-34-24 crankset that is shown.

Wish I could ascertain its model (but thanks for its model year :-).
