Been a while since I've seen  Bantam frame, but other than the rear plungers on that one, it looks 100% BSA to me.

The spring for the seat suspension would also indicate its something unusual.

The OP is streets ahead of us if he can suggest its an Eysink, as indeed it looks it could well be.

hi rex,it's not a bantam frame as its shape at the rear is different,also the shocks were not used by bsa, also thee serial no.52638 is not bsa.I bought the bike as a bsa,like you i thought it was a bantam d1?the shape of the frame is more like motobecane at the rear ,but its not ,what a puzzle ha ha,it has the DKW look with the different rear end.thanks for your reply peter.

If it is an Eysink, nice little bike.
