1992 Maxxim Team Issue Pro XL

Aussie made frame/fork

Rare Aussie made frame
MAXXIM Pro XL 20" race frame from 1990's, made in Australia.
The MAXXIM company was Australian owned and they manufactured frames and forks out of a small shed in the suburb of Redcliffe, Queensland up until (to the best of my knowledge) the late 1990's. The company was sold off and after that it is unknown as to what happened.
A popular bike among BMX racers along the east coast of Australia.  Maxxim also had sponsored riders and their own pro team.
