Freestyle Ace circa 85, mags are acorns stamped ammaco, it looks standard except for tyres and front brake missing.  :daumenhoch:

Is the ammaco motive in the gusset cracked?

your frame is the same as a pro, they all used the same frame except the later koolstyler, there was a couple of mods to the gusset over the years to eliminate the cracking which was prone.
