Moose:
I don't think the chrome one is a GL unless the hole for the rear brake cable exit is toward the bottom of the seatstay (as Del's). I suspect Jay is correct and someone's just drilled the top tube to run the cable.

there are 3 holes on that tube. one near the rear dropout, one near the head tube and one near the seat tube.
not checked the forks yet

JAY:
I still think the Glynn lewis frames had GL cut out above the brake bridge /platform , just from memory , can anybody confirm that , I might be wrong , but its bugging me now , i've got to know  :-\

Del:
No it didnt Jay, it just had the dp cut out, I can scan an advert from an old BMX Action Bike if you'd like?
EDIT - I've taken a pic of the double advert taken from April '85. You cant make out the DP cutout from the crap pic but read the last paragraph.

Clicky for piccy!

JAY:
Cheers Del ,Thanks for that pic , nice one .....

I still say there was a Glynn Lewis  Dp freestyler , Maybe it was the bronze coloured one , that had GL cut out in it , anybody got any shots of that ......Maybe i dreamt it  ;D won't sleep tonight now  ;D
