old aus shockie bike id
Hey everyone i'm new here and was hoping somene here could help me out
Couple of years ago i found an old bike on the tip, and i've slowly been fixing it up.My problem is i have no idea what it is. I've searched the web and haven't been able to find out anything about it. so i thort i'd try here.
The bike had no stickers or marking when i found it.The only things i can find are the serial number
MI031875 and the letters W.T.B under where the cranks go.
Some pics. seat and centre shock aren't original but rest is including paint scheme
I have the cranks and chain but am missing the wheels.
any help identifying it will be much appreciated
THANX

you do know when the sport was first forming we were coping motocross bikes. then we got off the dirt and a whole new part of the sport started.

Why, I think it might also be a bicycle.
