Its a 'Dollie' :-X let us never speak that name again... Dalmation Collie cross... he's called Floyd... aka the 'Regal Beagle' :)

wow - a bit of positivity... :) cheers Dave - I think it will turn out pretty good :daumenhoch:

I would say it's the same as mine
in the end we said it was a AKISU and Tange like made - higher end welds and better tubing
aero shark and norco were made by Akisu
mine will be a custom job but going to have AKISU Decals 8)
cheers B

deffo akisu made, the G serial gives it away and also just being one, having seen dozens up to now :LolLolLolLol:

ARRG... ARRRRG! plese post a pic of your stratton.
I would have place my bet on AERO DESTROYER, but don't remember why.
Bendy, in case you read this, you had originally posted the bike-pic ED posted here and said about "looks most like this..."
you had once said that Lee from burnerworld was the owner --- ANY chance you could find out or help us find out what that bike was? any info, a link?

haha,i'll get some pics up for ya
-
:( 1985 Stratton Procat would have different dropouts , I thinks
;)
but that it might not be a Pro cat but one of the others ? they may have had different drop outs due to different styles - race - street or freestyle as such !
-
might very well be, Bendy, however I cant find any stratton pics that resemble Ed's / that features Ed's kind of dropouts
what made me think AERO DESTROYER was probably:
Moza on bmxmuseum identifies a bike that seemingly looks like Ed's as an Aero Destroyer (Bogusbob posts same? kind of bike and provides a pic of the REAR BRAKE BRIDGE =====> Ed -and Moza- should be able to confirm if his/their bike has the same 'button')
-> http://bmxmuseum.com/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=74989 April 2007 if i'm not mistaken
(http://bmxmuseum.com/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=11303 same)

(http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/v521/fischflo/bogusbobsAeroDestroyerUuButton.jpg)
to be honest: a bit later --June 2007 i thinks-- Moza goes 'hm.. aero destroyer dunno'
now i have no info on the decals, so i'm looking forward to seeing OLDSCHOOLFOOL's frame

RATS.... >:(

it's a old thread
but
rear drop outs are the same as mine
he has a T but 9 digits - mine has the T but 7 digits
forks are the same bladed style
geomitry looks the same
but there is no under gusset holed plate on his - mine has
his decals read mk II AERO - mine i can't work out the out line left ? but could be aero ?
so who made the AERO - company ? frame most likey AKISU made
Cheers B :D
-
:laugh: Hi B !
I think i remember the decals' outline traces on your bike; they did look smth like the decals in question, didn't they ? ;)
On the AERO company --- difficult matter, as there seem to be less than 12 people who have actually even only HEARD of this brand. However I have managed to locate a person who i believe is the ONLY person on the ENTIRE PLANET who has actually seen and owned an AERO DESTROYER bitd !! :shocked: ---- his name is Si, he lives in a secret place and, yes, he actually is a member of radbmx, where he known as 'back to the burner'. I have contacted him (PM), invited him to enter this thread, where he is expected to appear within a couple of days......... :yahoo_silent:
:Great_Britain:
-
but it looks the wrong way round for the AERO decal ;D
(http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/tt183/ELEVENTEENBENDYCAT/BMX/SNC15880.jpg)
-
so you have an OREA ;D ?
i just noticed that there is a bridge between the chainstays on monikans pic (MKII) that is missing on Ed's, so
=> Ed's might be an MKI ?
info that at least not supports the stratton thesis: this bike's recently been sold on thebasy as a stratton super aero, which would mean another stratton typical drop
(http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/v521/fischflo/strattonSuperAero.jpg)
of course, Moza has seen at least a pic of an aero destroyer at some point, so he too could --and, clearly, should-- be asked ......, but first
we need to rest

Mine was deffo an Aero 'Something' as the Aero decals on it were original, based on what a bitch they were to get off ;D
Anyway... been keying the hell out of my chrome for a couple of days and I got the primer on yesterday... gotta go hunt my baby blue today :smitten:

Will be intresting to see how you are going to go with this - as i got to paint mine as well and have a bit of a idea of what - just don't want to come up with the same idea ;D
and i think we need to add this thread to this link as well

If anything, mine appears to be very similar to the aero bike that was shown on page 3 from Burnerworld (Clicky here (http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/index.php'topic=120316.msg1167466#msg1167466)). Particulalrly when you look at the rear triangle.

One recurring thing I keep reading about is how light they are, my F&F is very light.
-
yo. if the forks are hollow at the bottom, then its a destroyer. everything on the frame matches what i had except its missing the yellow destroyer decal. but that is all that is original on the bike. the rest has all been swapped.
wanna sell it? please please. i know your all baggin it but i want my childhood back ;D :D
