POS booty find! but what is it?
« on: September 12, 2010, 08:14 PM »
just picked this up from a car boot sale this morning for peanuts, worth the fiver i paid just for the useable bars and suntour stem, but im gonna resto it for my girlfriend to use to keep up with her brats down the park.
any ideas what it actually is? im presuming its a cheap catalogue bike such as emmelle or universal, but ya never know! frame has copied the aero reflex quite a bit, even similar triangle cut outs in the dropout areas and a very poorly stamped serial number!

any ideas guys?

They do look 7x style though, have a look for a stamp on them

Ashley Heath for you two i reckon. It's massive and fills two fields.

The last time i went there Mark it was pretty loaded with blinging chrome Robinsons, CW's and such tat. Left it there mate, you know me, if it aint really rare and requires a shed load of work i aint interested.  :LolLolLolLol:


I've had 1 find in 4 visits mate. You just never know with Ashley Heath, it's right on the doorstep of MRD, SRE and Rickman. One day i'll find one of those puppies there. :4_17_5:
