^^lol :LolLolLolLol: :slayer:


 ..... somewhere here someone wrote that A-Pro was ....wait here, gossa:
"Could be made by A-Pro who have factories in Taiwan and China? Big manufacturer who make a gazillion bike a year for lots of brands."  [http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,151478.msg1491813.html#msg1491813]

so probably some post 1983 knock-off, as drops and forks very mongoose Expert-esque ::)

right fischflo, thats what I think.
The fork is known (Akisu, stamped 83, mongoose-style), the frame : front redline, back mongoose - style, taiwanese production somewhen between 83 and 86 I guess, but don't know.
Anyway, I am looking for a factory-spec image of an A-Pro BMX, if it exists. Recently found an A-Pro-Scooter  :) Here some pics...

Does look like it's a copy of a few frames Jochen  :D  Nothing on the museum under A Pro either , at least it's rare  :daumenhoch:

Maybe you should have kept the MT aero pro and sold this ! Im glad you didn't though  ;) 8)

Good to see you started posting  :)
