They should be stamped on, crushed squeezed and thrown in the furnace and used to make tin hats for the army.

Lets just look at em for a moment. The twin downtube idea was first used by kuwahara on there attempt at a freestyle frame....Nuff said there then. Then what was the idea behing those loop things on the rear stays?? Anyone remember those bolt on door handles you could buy? Yep the ones that were about as useful as a sausage sandwich at a barmitzver. I know Fiola had them but he was the only one  that had them coz he has small feet and his heels didnt catch on them. And lastly they had that giant slab of iron welded around the seat post nicked off of the DP (another one of my faves) i assume to counter balance the enormous weight of the forks! If these frames were part of a peice of clothing they would be the gusset in a pair of incontinence pants.......Get something nice for a little bit more doh like a Hustler freestyler, good strong light weight and usable.

Hi

I also noticed the bay bike - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/old-skool-bmx-like-skyway-hutch-pk-ripper-burner_W0QQitemZ7189971564QQcategoryZ22677QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I don't mind the design, but was rather puzzled with the seat post tube angle, something is not right there, take a good look at both the pics on the left.

It looks like a rotten banana, black and bent and a bit squidgy.

I've heard they are rather weak, but that takes the banana.......sorry  :-[
