Hi, i have this bike in my garage. Unknown History, basically if anybody can guide me as to its make or model. secondly, are the forks actual 'bomber' as in Marzocchi forks. Any help would be much appreciated.

    from the images provided.

    a no name frame and a no name fork.

    TBH very hard to see anything from your pics.

    Pretty sure those forks are cheap Suntour's, I have a pair of near identical lowers in the shed right now....definately not Bombers.

    Frame as clearly been resprayed so could be anything underneath!

  • Looks stolen if you ask me. (not saying you stole it) The paint job looks really bad. I bought a stolen GT for £10 and it had a similar paint job LOLOL except much worse. I reckon you should take more pictures from a little further away.

    At first glance I thought it could be a cove stiffee.

    Probably a Weifeng WF-191DH fork.

    Actually looks a lot like a diamondback d10. Blatantly stolen

    I've bought resprayed frames that weren't stolen, the paint underneath was just wrecked.....why is matt black so common though? Paint cheaper?

    It probally is cheaper. It is also the best colour for covering up everything undeneath
