Title: Akisu or Diamond Back - Tange Frame
Post by: yoqona on June 14, 2018, 03:25 PM
HI All

I've just got hold of this BMX which has been stickered up as a diamond back, my digging suggests that it's actually an Akisu bike with a Tange Frame with oval crossbar and teardrop downtube, forks are oval too. Before I rip the stickers off, does anyone know if Diamondback ever made this bike or maybe you know the old owner from Wolverhampton, it has the postcode WV73PP on the BB

It would be nice to restore it to what it was so if anyone has a clue about which bike it used to be then let em know

Cheers for any help

Akisu did make DB forks but not sure about frames.

Don't think that is a DB frame as missing the Diamond Gusset!
