Thanks for the comment, but I've got a '91 as well. paint is sorta' the same irradescent pearl, but decals are different colour and no black seat tube and fork with Tange Decals. '90 and '91 ran the Tange Superstrut fork. Another diff. is '90 and later went with a top swing derailleur whereas this has the pulley on the seat tube and is a bottom swing. My '91 also runs Early rapid fire and this bike has XT thumbshifters. Camera flash makes it difficult to get a good pic of the paint colour.
