What is this thing? Top tube only- no down tube, 28 spoke sew-ups w/ Bullseye hubs, Titanium Cyclecraft fork! DK mini stem,Uni seat. Bike weighs almost nothing- if you pick it up it's hard to believe your actually holding a ridable (for a real little fella) bicycle! So, what's the frame?

Titanium forks (or so I was told- I ain't no scientist)

My first thought when I saw the rear dropout was that it looked a like cyclecraft, but thats just a guess, Ive never seen that frame before.
Sweet little ride.

Forks looks like cyclecraft for sure, if the frame is secret cycles then there wernt very many made at all
and Todd britton did indeed make them.
I found an email for Todd Britton if you want to see if you can get in contact with him to ident that it is a true secret cycles.

Oh to be little enough to ride that. I love the minis just dont have anyone to ride them. Both my boys are way to big now.
I have a set of Araya sew-up rims with a bmx tread on them I cant remember what kind of tire it is but if anyone is interested let me know I am open for a trade or something.

I think sew ups are a little different now than before.
That's a trick little scoot! Cranx?

Fabweld was my guess also.
Those forks sure look like titanium in the pics. Try sticking a magnet to them, if it will not stick they most likely are Ti...

WOW its missing the bottom tube?.. is it strong enough to hold someones weight? curious.

Yeah, Campy cranks.
Osamaie- it's not missing the down tube, it never had one! Nuts, huh? Strong enough to hold a 5 year old, I guess. This bike is the smallest 20 inch I've ever seen. I'm 6 ft 2, should I try riding it and see what happens?

Then it would be the smallest chopper you've ever seen...
To answer the earlier question, you should be able to find sew-ups in 20" - but 1 1/8 clinchers are probably just as light and you won't have to worry about re-gluing the every two weeks to keep them from rolling off.
