I think Kev (member: KDW712) might be your man for free-agent bob 

Click on his profile and I think he has a link to his website there may be some free-agent info / ads on there 

Think southern_andy has a nice free agent too - white n blue one at MK as I remember

looks like a Mini that one.

Kev does know his stuff about free Agents so a PM should help you out a lot.


Mines a Free Agent Limo.

According to a certain Voris Dixon, he produced the early Free Agent frames and forks, about 1985ish.

This does look quite an early one, script type decals, not sure if the serials are in date order.

Looks an early one 1985/86 I reckon although the parts are a bit earlier.

frame 006

so should prob have the square font decals like andys
but the earlier script ones like yours do look a bit nicer
think they phased them out around 88 ish
those decals do look quite old and may well be orig

very nice bikes
under rated in my opinion


whats going on with that seat tube / clamp though ?

[bmxbob]

cheers for that, the original seat post is stuck so there is a skinny post inside it  and then a shim in the seatguts   
not done by me, i just picked the bike up today.

Could be a pain to remove but acheiveable, one way would be to drill it out; I would try and avoid clamping and twisting the frame as most recent attempts I have seen have ended in tears  .
