Have you got better pics of the drop outs ????? fork ones aswell.

Oval tubing ?????

cause it looks like an Aero Pro Burner from those piccys.
One build a year, the only way to get it right. No rushing involved.

Looks like Tange ARX forks. Tange-a-like type frame.
Any serial stamps?

............same bike? -> http://bmxmuseum.com/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=76839#p76839

i'd guess AERO SHARK
-> http://bmxmuseum.com/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=1731100

or may be AERO DESTROYER      --- think that would then look like this one:

-> http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/index.php'topic=114687.msg1117062#msg1117062
(also ->http://bmxmuseum.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=178373 ...?)


and then there's Bloud who says 1984 NORCO Spitfire Turbo   .."Tange made"... hm : )
-> http://bmxmuseum.com/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=1731100   --- or, pretty much same info,:--
-> http://bmxmuseum.com/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=2418687#p2418687
-> http://bmxmuseum.com/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=2419655#p2419655
                                                http://bmxmuseum.com/bikes/norco/13089
[but i don't follow that, cus he identifies a bike as Norco ...even tho it is missing the Norco's holy undergusset you can see in the link's pic he posts  ::)]

So Laserlite .... done with  ;D ::)

ITS A LASERLITE... I'm going to dremmel the Kuwie logo in the right places.

Now move along please... nothing to see here  :police:

( great research dude  8) will compare my POS to their POS on Tuesday )

looks most like this...





the downtube graphic on bendycats looks like the fork graphic on mine... I was thinking it was a Stratton Aero or somefink

What breed of dog is that?  My neighbour has a Dalmatian/Border Collie cross which looks exactly like yours - His is as mad as a box of frogs though...
