Peeps had this a little while got bored today so got out stripper and spent a few hours in the garden. Anyway not to sure what could be thought it was a schwinn what i got it but i dunno lots frames out there like this.
Pionts: no frame serial and the seat clamp was spot welded on to the frame. It's a nice light frame.

:) Looks very Akisu like.Is that a kickstand mount behind the bb? Spot welded seatclamps are often a sign that it`s a fairly low-end frame.
-
As above, the stand bracket indicates this too!, grind it off!
-
Part of the MT range ????
-
Yes it is a kickstand and i agree about being low-end but it's not a bad looking frame and as i say it's very light, most of the low end frames ive had in the past have been heavy.

Could be having a look through the museum now.

Looks similar to a falcon pro Theta to me

Falcon Pro Street Flyer?

edit - although no kickstand again.
-
first thought Schwinn Thrasher (http://www.vintagebmx.com/community/lofiversion/index.php/t27038603.html) as that has similar gusset and a stand but rather unlikely nevertheless f.ex. because of: welds -- too dirty -- + no serial + you in UK not US
i might have another look in the morningsky'## :yahoo_silent:
-
Thanks guys ive been hunting through the museum and cant find anything with the kickstand, got the grinder out at work today so im loppin it off.

chop chop chop :LolLolLolLol:

falcon pro theta might be a good guess, althogh.. the welds....
---------
PS: quite a few bikes had that SPECIFIC holy gusset style with the cut off angle: f.ex. Suzuki, Lazer, Royce Union (?), lotus cobra MX-1, Hanter ... some of them have a kickstand....
:-\
