Early Bontrager CX Question

Did Keith produce anyearly frames WITHOUT the wishbone seatstay? I have a frame with split stays and individual cable hanger. No serial number. Any good resources for this? Thanks!!

Ahhh Bontrager cyclocross bikes - that was my first bespoke bike purchase! I regret selling that - it was so dead sexy.

I have nothing of value to add to this discussion

Thank you! I'll see what's out there. That seems like over the top $$?

Currently it's just a frameset with Shimano 600 Threaded headset. 19.5" ST, 20.5" TT. Will snag some photos today.
