My first BMX was a Tensor Magnum but it was different to this. My one had a 3 piece cotter pin crank and gussets on the frame similar to early Kuwahara.
When I bought my one I expected it to arrive with a 1 piece crank as shown on the advert so they might have changed the spec a bit from time to time.

Cheupelie:
Yeah I know, They look similar in a certain way, just like the Batavus.

But I don´t know for sure if the mags are Grimeca, because there´s no sign of the brand on the outside of the wheels...
An early Kuwahara? I thought the serials of Kuwahara are different?
Did you noticed the serial number on the bottom bracket?
Does it says anything to you guys?

(okv) 17 238 757 D

And what about the Renthal-pad? It doesn´t say much, but it is an eighties-version seen on Mongooses, while they were their sponsors...
Could it be a collection of different BMX parts?

I´m fed up with not knowing   :buck2:

I had a black 'BMX Magnum Gold' rom tensor - same thing, pic had a one piece crank and this thing arrived with cotter pin cranks....was forever changing the pins.

Mind you, i put Mongoose stickers on it and people really did think it was a goose!
