it could be later though, as there is no mention of the Competition model in the 1994 catalog, this is wrongly listed as a Technos, it's a Competition, but is Art decor, and states 1999 http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140860919134&item=140860919134&lgeo=1&vectorid=229466http://rover.ebay.com/roverimp/1/710-53481-19255-0/1?ff3=2&pub=5574889051&toolid=10001&campid=5336525415&item=140860919134&mpt=[CACHEBUSTER] on the later steel Nags, the paint finish is almost shell like around the tubes, this can mean the paint can crack and flake in places, eg, my 96 master had a few little flakes, where as the 92/92 master has a different paint that seems to adhere to the steel better
You can view the 2001 catalog at velobase, here you can see a late technos, but no Competion, so you need to be looking at catalogs circa 94-00 to get bang accurate age, none are online as yet
