I haven't been able to find any information on the make in that time. It's definitely early 90s. Possibly the Aerotek that makes custom titanium bolt kits for motocross bikes made some mountain bikes once?

I found the bare frame on the sidewalk and built it up with a 26" Long Haul Trucker fork and Salsa woodchippers. Started out with bar-end shifters but they were constantly bumping into things due to the flared drops. Eventually switched to Suntour command shifters when I happened across a set.

The brakes and drivetrain I originally scrounged from a stumpjumper FS with lots of purple anodized dongles. I replaced the derailleurs and the purple chainring bolts have faded a lot but the brakes still look good. Now that I look at these pictures I should probably replace those rusty washers and the overlong m6 bolt.
What front rack are you using, and how do you like it? Thanks
