1993 Jamis Dakota 1x Cafe Cruiser

I traded 2 sets of used tires for this Jamis in May 2025. I did my normal "mtb to cafe cruiser" thing, making it more comfortable for my pentagenarian body. I think this is a 1993 model because it had the 7 speed black Deore LX parts, but I can't find enough info online to confirm it.

Thanks. I first saw the silver/cream combo on a mid-90s Rocky Mountain Fusion and thought it was awesome.
