24" or 26"

My guess would be it's a JAD Cruiser of some sort

Probably needs Chopper bars to ride the fooker.

Why does the top tube go straight through the headtube, is it open at the end?

looking at distance between chainstay and seat post, could you get any wheel on there that would allow the cranks to turn?

No way that I can see to mount a brake ?

Someone's stuck a crank on some plumbling.

Think you're right.

Could work with a layback seatpost....

Looks like griff's got some competition for the Radbmx calender contract.

I have heard of a layback seatpost , but never a layforward $:-\$

Nice drawing though

Keep the cranks and stick the frame on Raleighburner.com Nick , it will sell in no time ..... they love a bike with funny geometry

ohhh you are awful

MartyC · « **Reply #18 on:** October 22, 2014, 03:26 PM »

It's a mountain bike frame, elevated chain stays; were all the rage in the early 90s.

Looks like titanium n all.
