Hey Kang - I used to have one of these, I wonder if this is it? I bought it in 1990 (can't remember the guy's name). My one had Vitus forks which had been cut and narrowed to accept a super narrow Sansui front hub. I also ran a Mavic Comette +/- disc. I loved that bike - was a bit flexy off the line but fast once you were up to speed. Had a challenge keeping the seat post up from what I remember. I was 3rd in the NZ Junior pursuit champs in 1991 on it ;-)
