Akisu F/F ?

<< < (2/3) > >>

monkian:
All good points raised by the lads above but I've also seen some Akisu parts labeled 'Made in Japan'.
Speculation but it could be that they moved production to Taiwan from Japan (like most of the others including Tange) but maybe did it early.

Mikku:
The plot thickens! What frame is that Paul?

Retrodan72:
I had an Akisu BITD, it was the last frame I had before I gave BMX up in 1987.

It was a good frameset to be fair. I had a Piranha - broke it, a Fox 4 Styler - broke that, but my trusty Akisu took the all punishment that a 15 year old kid could give it. It was close to identical to my mates Aero Pro too, so much so, that I took the decals off and told people it was an AP.

Taipan:
Akisu are masters of the replica frameset  ;)

Akisu in Latin means 'to copy or be copied'   ::)
