Need to Pick your Brains Radsters

[Jamroll]

Have the opportunity to pick up a frame and fork set which look quite nice,
The problemo is I've never heard of the build 
1987 Landis Freestyler
Could anyone here maybe give the the heads up on this bike or even  a little background info?
Just dont really want to spend a 3 figure sum on something that no one has ever heard of 
Cheers. Al.

Didnt Landis make some really cheap copy parts in the 80s, grips, goggles, pads etc. Personally didnt know they made frames, but bet your bottom doller its a POS

and ive never heaqrd of landis either any picts of it

[meticulous]

ive never heard either, and if its never been listed in the museum then the chances are it worthless, the bits on it might be ok though....

Wasn't there a rider in the early eighties called Mike Landis? I'm going to have to google it now.


Are you in the States - I found an American cycle distributor called Landis Cyclery??

[cherrypicker]

Me again    Found a brief mention of them over on bmxmuseum by member called  bmxbrigade86. The thread is about the worst department store own brand bmx so i'm guessing the Landis Cyclery place made their own freestyler.

I'm looking at the quality of the welds and thinking not good

Looks like a cheap copy of a Gen 1 freestyler with an added standing platform to me, not worth the shipping and import duty I`d say
