Post by: HEYWOOD BMX on August 07, 2008, 10:35 AM: :) They were sold in the UK as Meteorlite and also Minerva brand names.I had one same as in the picture,bought new for £39.99 with Landing Gear type forks with platforms.The forks also came with the standing platforms higher up.Falcon Pro also did a complete bike with the same frame,but without the coaster brake anchor? Meteorlite also did another freestyle frame similar to a GT Performer... A shop called Rainbow Cycles in Wood Green,London also sold them in chrome as the Rainbow Freestyler..

Post by: WizardWeb on August 09, 2008, 11:54 AM: Wasn't there also a Meteor-lite with the same platform as the original CW freestyler and twin down tubes like a Kuwahara? Same landing gear type forks though.

I seem to remember a kid at school who had one. It definitely wasn't a genuine make - if you get my drift....
