Don't think it is a BMX ? Looks like some thing else that has the size of a BMX and can take BMX stuff ? But dropouts are not BMX - crank is not BMX - pedals are not BMX - frame geometry is deffo not a BMX design to do stunts on or race hard ?

I think it's some sort of 'Shopper bike'

Forks are twin pinch Tange (head tube will have a number and then a letter - year / month
Acorn mag wheels and
Nitto stem ?
Mushroom grips

So it's a kind of a shopper /town bike I guess ?


Cheers B

Bricross made old shoppers and town bikes years ago. Looks to be what that is based around.

Hi. Don't know the name but sure my mate had one in late 80s. Think they were a skyway copy sold out of makro stores
