Aero F&F of Unknown Origin

(1/5) > >>

m5 paul:
Guys, I have asked the question on another forum (bmxmuseum) but am not getting very far. I have just bought an early(ish) eighties (I think) aero F&F.

Bought it because I love the look but now I really want to find out exactly what it is. Want to build it up with a nice set of Arayas or Ukais, redline cranks etc etc - should look a cracker but just need to i.d. what the hell i have got myself.

Got a few pics (well, quite a lot) to try and help you guys pin a name to it.



Serial number


Dropouts






Rear end




Down tube, it is very tear-dropped in shape


Top tube is slightly oval


Welds are pretty good






Any help that you can offer would really be very appreciated.

Col:
Very similar to the Tensor Foxbat I just got but it has twin top tubes.

MartyC:
Welds look like pretty mass production, no TIG fillets on the weld = low cost, so probably a generic frame and fork, made in Taiwan most likely.  Looks nice all teh same and would come up well with a little work  ;).

fischflo:
except for the tube between the chainstays ...................... Kosoku (sp?) Aero shark , which originally had a cool prismatic decal on the downtube  8)

stuntmaster:
it`s a Kosoku  as it was mine before i sold it on ebay and the buyer then removed the sticker`s and put as unknown ie torker what not see ad  ::)
