Looks like a Rhino III Chris
Sorry I took so long to answer, I had to find a telescope to see the picture properly :LolLolLolLol:
-
welll thats what i thought but if you look behind the bottom bracket they are curved and not straight so thats why its throwing me a bit?as for the pic i took it off the bay its the one i used to buy it and i though it was a rhino 3 also :-\
-
and also behind the bottom bracket about two inches back there is tubing going across and there isnt on the rhino 3
-
this is a better pic this is the number from the bay 271215675755 you will see what i mean behind the bottom bracket :daumenhoch: im sure you will find it nick :LolLolLolLol: :daumenhoch:
-
also,,,rhino has the same seat tube as aero pro frame ,,,,,,,ovalised 3/4 way down,,,if its round its a generic fisheye drop out frame pos
-
deffo not a rhino,,,,frame aint slopin enough either
-
drop outs aint long enough either
-
ive been looking through the museum but i think its going to be a long process unless someone use to have one :-\

A real Rhino III sort of dimpled top tube would have . . . . (<- Yoda voice)

i tell you what though your not that far off the money with the frame looking the same i think the drop outs are level with the bottom stave and the other is slightly on a angle and thats about it :daumenhoch:i wonder if one is a later version and they slightly changed it ? or earlier for that matter :daumenhoch:
-
Seller is Daz bmx that was on ere, it'll be a right bag o shite if he's selling it ::)
-
cheers! that makes me feel a lot better :-\ :LolLolLolLol:

i meant to say i think's fake one - like you and Madddog already suggested
... about two weeks ago somebody here wanted a bike identified with a "swoosh" or something, dont remember the word what he said. no pics.
but i remember linking one of the rhino links from above -i.e. in the direction fake rhino- .. ;) ::)

its as near as damm it like that akisu that bob acid showed me theres just a little slight difference with the back dropout but if it is a fake it still looks a pretty tidy frame and fork i might just put some akisu decals on and just build it with spare bits :daumenhoch:

Have you paid for it yet? Nowt stopping you bailing out if you think you've paid too much for a generic frame. :daumenhoch:
-
right :daumenhoch: i thought too that it looks tidy, not like one of those smear welded ones. Might make a bangin bike - but good that Ozone said that ! :laugh:
-
payed and completed in paypal but hey ho it will still look good when ive finished with it if not my buddy andy68 can have it and he can scratch it all to his hearts content :LolLolLolLol:
