TT length and also the rear loop tube size. Also if the downtube is bigger than the top tube, it may be a Rupe.

Trouble is I can't remember what the sizes are.

This is mine (look how thick the seat/chain stays are).

I know!  he's had it hanging up in his workshop for years! and he just said to me that as i love BMX's i'm more than welcome to it!

he said he's got Skyway bars and other parts but he said they're all a bit rusty now.......so a nice little resto project to keep me quiet 

i'm sure he'll get a few drinks out of it though..........but no mention of dry bumming please!
