I have an eastern bmx bike, not sure what year or what model. im thinking its either an AOS, Jane, or maybe even an Element. it has the seat tube cutout but no other cutouts. has the wavy chainstay, the tt size is 21" (could be 20.75" but fairly sure i measured 21") the brake mounts are welded on, has the holes for removable gyro tabs, the brake cable connectors or for a single cable setup (my brothers ace of spades has the old 3 cable mount) the dropouts arent hollow ended like a grim reaper, etc. for some reason eastern doesnt have a serial lookup online. if anyone has any way to find out exactly what it is, let me know

Either post a pic of the bb or post the numbers and letters. That is usually good enough for some of these guys to go on.

The 2008/09 Element and AOS frames had a funky chainstay.

Most of them have a head tube cut out like the eastern logo or whatever.

I have a Grim Reaper sitting on the workbench in my garage. It has all the cutouts, and the cs are capped at the dropouts.

Another thing about the GR is that it only has 2 cable guides. The one above has three.
