The dings fine me old mukka In fact, for a frame from that period it's got off bloomin lightly.And it *might* be a Spooky made one from the late 90's - no 'knuckle-duster' brake guide on the downtube, no cut out T1 logo on the toptube gusset, downtube size and the dropouts and headtube look spot on. Only thing that'd put me off is the 14mm drops, but they could be custom (or cut out at a later date). Would need to see a piccy of the blowholes in the bottom bracket to be sure though. Bloomin' lovely is Spooky made stuff If it is an earlier one, you can run a 44/16, but 36/13 would be grand as well. I've got a Fit 7075 nearly new sprocket that'd do you.You can (if you want) get that ding braise filled and filed back, although personally you don't need to do it - it's a nice mid school frame as is and that ding is tiny - Is that it's original paint? 14mm axles will indeed fit 14mm drops. Again fella, I'm just down the road from you and have a fair old amount of crap from the late 90's/early 2000's so just give me a shout if you want owt *edited as I realised I'd put about 300 feckin' smileys in the post*
Nice frame set, I've got a spare casket in nice condition I'm not using
Is the downtube 1.75 or 1.5?
Bit of a strange One that frame, it's got some features of earlier Spooky or Kastan made frames, and later Maas made?! The cable guides don't look like anything used at the time either.

The only thing that gets in the way of loe gearing is the brake stays, or the brake really, you need to get one that is very low
looking at Your pics again, is the headtube & bottom bracket machined thinner in the middle? Earlier Maas made frame is My guess.
