If you check out the Unridable BMX thread, I may be mistaken, but its the same frame set???? Spooky.

if I had a quid for every bike that used those dropouts, i would probably have about 30 quid by now.

Akisu, those dropouts.

Most of the cheap bikes from a few years ago too(mammoth, loeki. limmit).

some early kuwaharas had 'em

I see bikes with those dropouts and no stickers all the time. I get swamped with offers from my wanted ad's for that stuff., I will try to find some of the pics.

It's one of those taiwanese made frames that everyone has. They were sold down here as about three different bikes. From what I've seen they are also the same as some schwinn frames too! Good luck finding out. it could be 50 different things.
