Measure the chainstay length. If it's similar or shorter than the Roadeo, you almost certainly have the road standard. Given the sidepulls and year, that is a strong possibility. The only model of that era was the road standard. If the chainstays are longer, it would be a Longlow. But I'll have to look at my old Readers to see if the Longlow was made yet in 1997. I'm pretty sure custom geometry was not being done at that time.
Pre-custom days, the models were Road (standard), Allrounder (with cantis), the rare Mountain frame, and then later the Longlow and the somewhat rare Cyclocross model. Given this, chainstay length would be your identifier for your sidepull frame.
