Dawes Lightning info wanted

[Michael Kelly]

I'm after information on the Dawes Lightning bike made sometime around the mid 1980s. In particular,
does anyone know what tubing material the frame/forks are made from ? Are there any websites that
provide any sort of technical specs. for old Dawes bikes like this ?

Cut my teeth (and shins, till R Ballantine told me about toeclips) on one of these. Available with
sport or touring looks, but only real difference was short or long mudguards. Frame/forks were
high-ten steel. Steel rims. Usual excellent Dawes paint finish. Happy days...

None that I know: try Google?
