Hello fellas really need to know what this is cause its confusing the hell out of me.Thought it was tange but nothing ive looked at seems to match(aero pro,KZ1 etc) please can the wise(http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/t73/oldtimer3/tange12001.jpg) and masterfull on this site help me(http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/t73/oldtimer3/tange12002.jpg) out :daumenhoch:
-
Tange made many many frames for other makes, what is the serial number and where is it located?
-
there is a serial number on the left rear dropout along the bottom edge and it reads T4086831
-
rhino maybe
-
The thing thats foxing me is the extra brace across the rear chainstays near the bb,all the other tange frames ive looked at dont seem to have this :-\
-
aint that the same as moza's lazer lite copy bike in another thread somewhere on here ?.
-
I would hazard a guess at a top of the range falcon Was it called a theta or gamma or something greek anyways. :)
-
falcon/barbican/peugeot/aero fox/coventry eagle/puch and probably many other brands with essentially the same frame dont reckon its a kuwie though but then again im no expert
-
Dont think its a kuwahara either or a falcon cause the rear dropouts dont match.Its doin me head in cause i know its a good frame,its light and the welds are good and i really want to bring it back to its former glory.The search goes on ::)
-
Like Dordy said its like one I have, Im not slagging your frame off but the welds on mine are much better. Mine has like a little barrel shape in the middle of the brake bridge. I was 99% sure mine was called an Aero Destroyer, never heard of them anyway its now a Kuwie copy in this resto section somewhere. It might be hard to find if its a cheaper model as most only bother about the good stuff.

Oh well neva mind it only stands me at £40 and thats with rear tuff11 in good nick to.Problem ive got now is what to do with it :-\
