1996 Profile Rocket Prototype..
I was told this is 1 of 4 prototype frames Profile and Bill Prince (founder of Rocket BMX) came up with when the two companies were set to merge in '96-'97. The merger never went through even though BMX Plus magazine had published that it had. The 2 things that make it a "prototype" is 1) no serial number and 2) the final version of these frames ended up having smaller rear dropouts... not a smaller axel size, but a smaller aluminum plate that the dropouts were cut into and then welded to the frame.
Parts are as follows----Profile/Rocket Delta 20" XL prototype aluminum frameProfile H.I.P. stemProfile Imperial chainringElf Blaster barsAC cranks (180 mm)Mosh forks and pedalsGT Mohawk hubsRedline seat post clamp I printed the stickers myself
Very light, Very fast. Very smooth ride.
