Hiya mate,
I'm sure people have asked this question many a time before!!I think Jaymz or Bendy are your men for the answer.It's some sort of generic frame that may have been stickered as a fishbone or something else.Someone with more of a clue will be along shortly! :idiot2:

Don't think it's an Ammaco,seem to remember the plate behind seatpost being larger and vented/louvred on those Ammaco's.
Whatever the fook it is,it is not of any value dude,I can guarantee that!! :daumenhoch:

My mate bought one of these new in about 95. It was a pro zone freestyler but I have seen townsend and various other generic versions of this bike. His got stripped the second we got it home and rebuilt onto a diamond back silver streak frame I had lying around. had a few decent bits for the time and the price. Genuine dia compe bulldogs
and oddysey gyro. I ended up owning that bike half a dozen times. wish I still had the collection I had back then but don't we all.
