Post by: Picklez on January 06, 2013, 11:34 PM: Almost look like Boss Pro/Competition Freestyler, but missing a lower fork peg screw in?

Post by: Jaan on January 07, 2013, 12:33 AM: First guess would be a 87 Kuwi Bravo Team Issue ???
Title: Re: A rare star on these shores
Post by: Jaan on January 07, 2013, 12:37 AM: Looking at it again it can't be - the down-tube support strut is too shallow, unless its your picture...
Title: Re: A rare star on these shores
Post by: Picklez on January 07, 2013, 12:50 AM: now that looks like a Magician Ex or Bravo Pro, but the photo's make the angles look a bit wrong for the Pro, and the forks don't look quite right for either.

My head hurts, I'll leave it to those more knowledgable souls for now. :daumenhoch:
