Post by: Coastvl on October 14, 2005, 01:22 PM: heres one I've never seen before. I bought it from a guy here in Aust. It's made by Akisu I think. No one has been able to tell me what it's called. I built it up for my son who's 5. I've changed the grips, brakes and chainwheel too.

Post by: Coastvl on October 16, 2005, 12:30 AM: Thanks for the pic Orb. Very similar to mine dropouts wise.
Heres a frame made by our Quicksilver mob. Twin downtube team quicksilver. A mate of mine owns 2 of a known 3-4 evermade. He bought them from the guy that made and designed the Quicksilver bikes.
