1986 / 1987 ish I think Dave

If anyone still has the link to the old Alans site I think he had a couple on there like the one you describe

the top tube is pierced by the seat tube jmc/gt style, but is much longer,diagonally cut with a stamped "se"plate welded on the end and has a sleeved hole to take a caliper brake.the lower wishbone also has a sleeved hole to take something like a pitbull brake.rear dropouts are the same design as the later rippers/quads.any thoughts?
