What kind of bike is this?

Can anyone tell me what's going on with this bike? Thanks.

I think it's what's called a jump bike, like a BMX for doing stunts at a skate park?
Certainly not something for roads and trails, unless you're about 12 and foolhardy!!

Geometry looks like a Jump bike. With some long Travel forks.

Finish ? Looks look raw aluminiium thats tarnished / oxidised / weathered......

It's a jump/trials/dirt bike. And it isn't in great nick.

And without a front brake not legal to use on the road, not that would stop many users of this type of machine.

…..Adidas trainer jammed in the back of the forks / tyre stops all 😁👌

If you were after an actual make/model it looks a lot like the Diamondback ones you used to be able to get in Halfords.

What they all said, a jump bike, AKA an accident waiting to happen

You are all amazing! Thank you so much for the insights and quite prompt as well! I thought it looked a little odd with the long front forks. I only use it for the 3 minute ride to the lake via grass/dirt combo with motor vehicles being restricted. Also with no gnarly hills/dips/moguls/ditches..lol you name it.
Thanks again guys!!

But if you're a 'proper' cyclist, isn't that part of the makeup - ?
