Hi

Found this set below in my loft when i moved in, pretty rusty.

Just wondered if anyone knew what these parts are, and/or if they're worth anything as id rather let someone make use of them that throw them out.

Pics below:

frame serial number: CG06810811

Looks like a cheapy frame with akisu forks, get it polished and built in time for the summer :daumenhoch:

The fact that it has cable guides, mudguard lugs and a kickstand tab suggests that its very likely a POS - ie toy r us frame & forks.

Hope that helps

Funny enough, I also though Akisu forks, the moment I saw them.
