Hey,
Just bought x2 Alex BMX frame & forks. Decal says Made In Italy.
They are total bottom of the range catalogue 1980's bikes very similar to the Iron Horse bikes.
X1 has a head tube and BB gusset and the other just has a head tube gusset.

Has anyone ever heard of Alex frames? Obviously heard of Alex rims but not frames.........

All help gratefully received!!!!

Is this the one on ebay that sold for £2... saw that but wasn't too inspired by it, would be nice to see it built up though !

Yeah that's the one I won both of them! £2.70 each! Gotta be worth it for that price! Fully appreciate they are cheap catalogue bikes but I kinda like them! Best thing is I can build them up cheaply on cheap parts from their era. I spend enough money on my racing bike!
