The dealer sticker on the main tube is Dave Miller Cycles in Chester, they're still going to this day, maybe they have some information on the sale or particular model type. I'm a bit thrown by the tyres, surely they would be a freestyle tread, rather than Comp tread?

Looking at the chainring its not the low end one as its not a nasty one peice steel thing
Hi Dan, it's essentially the same frame as the Freestyle Pro, but with slightly lower spec standard parts. Lovely frames (and forks are for some reason, pretty rare) and you won't regret buying it if you do. I have a full mag article test ride somewhere, albeit on the Freestyle Pro, but it gets great comments.Serial number on the BB can be dated. First three digits will be something like 408, the 4 being 84 and 08 being August. The earlier ones had a stamped gusset but the cracked so the later ones were unstamped. Mine is July 84 and is stamped (from memory) so that one will be late 84 or early 85.I have a NOS Ammaco padset and have scanned it and sent it to 'the usual pad guy' so you'll be able to get new pads.I'm a race guy and my Ammaco is my only a Freestyle bike. I love it - fab to ride and very light weight, and most importantly it isn't too valuable (Haro) to chuck about.
Has the correct hinged seatpost clamp and judging by the hubs it has the correct mags also. Looks pretty much spot on buddy.
