Hi I am new! Help please frame id??
« on: May 26, 2015, 08:29 PM »
Hi All I am new here

I have returned to bmx after 25 years away, I am 40 now
I used to ride a shimano bmx with coasters back in the 80s.

I have recently aquired this, but am at a loss as to what it is???

No id stamped or stickers anywhere :(

Its light and strong and its great to ride, although bunny hops are a bit scary now as I am
7 stone heavier than I was [ Attachment: You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Thankyou Griff.
How can I find out what make my bike is?

Just intrigued as no id on at all. Not even a serial number.

bike looks like mix between Piranha and a Marlboro - think those (all?) had double butted tubing though?

Put a thread up - frame id  ----or add that to this thread's title (change first post), to give our spotters a chance ;)

Thanks Chubby.

I have a big shed and its already got a motorbike, a 50 year old racing bike and about 7 or other bikes(non bmx), could find room for another BMX... especialy shimano tanje in chrome, just like the one I had as a kid.
