I'm looking at this 185 for sale and he says it's and extended frame. The axel looks wide too, maybe spacers, I don't know. Anyone know what it could be?:wondering

i had a wide stancer a couple years back

had some expensive looking spacers between the hubs and rims with long long bolts.

and surprisingly sable

You would have to have way better pics than that and some without the fenders on to even begin to tell who made the frame. More than one company made them. Best of luck with your purchase.

That Just maybe be a 1980 185 the first year they came out and they were called big frames witch they have the same size frame as a big red and what not, that what this likes like to me cause its got atc 90 fenders on it the the 185 big frame was kinda like the 84 big red had 3 peice fenders right left and a trunk, Maybe Im wrong

I'm going to say it's after market.The frame appears to have double down tubes.Also looks like the frame has a lot of rake.
