I'd never seen a frame that OTT. The maroon and purple fade paint was spectacular. The bulged oversized top and down tubes reminded me of a Bates Canteflex but with grooves formed in the tubes. It was just my size 55cm x 55cm so I took it off of his hands.
Sorry but that's a 1997 Tecnos.
I have one of those in yellow, and I have a '98 in the same colorway as yours.
These were only made from 1995 until 2000 and they were supposedly the lightest production frame at the time.
(but my Nuovo Mexico and my Superissimo are both lighter)
