Reynolds 531 is the tubing the frame is made from it's not the name of the manufacturer. Looks like a real oddity to me but yeah go get it lets have a proper look at it. :daumenhoch:
I wouldn't pay silly money for it though. ???

Post by: Michael bmx on April 02, 2019, 07:57 AM: Thank you for the info, I was offered it for £45, I didn't think that was bad at all so thought it was worth getting.

I'm meant to collect today but seller has gone quite, bit upset with him as really do want it.

Thank you for the links the bikes are stunning.

I’m not sure it is a Burner tbh. Never seen a Mk2 with a proper head badge, they just had stickers.

Yeah just had a look at my daughters mk2. Frame looks the same but different forks and as you say not a riveted head badge.
Possibly a styler or something like that?

It could possibly be down to you giving the bikes exposure in here and FB. If you see what you think may be a pucker deal, don’t waste your time asking for advice and promoting them, get them bought.
