I have an early Mile 112 and its a really nice bike. There were two versions, the early one was lavender and silver and had a 4130 chr/mo frame and fork. The later version was aqua and white with an aluminum fork.
The fork bears a long rake intended to make for a comfortable ride at the end of an ironman (112 mile bike) triathalon.

Definately nice bike IMO and you don't see many around. Nicer than the earlier hundred series, comparable in quality to RB-2 but very different geometry. Mine is currently (blasphemy) my fixed gear trainer and a pleasure to ride:
