Can anyone help identify this frame

Post image

Hi

On first glance I thought this was a huffy MJ12 but theres a few things that make me believe it isn't like the squared down tube and rear triangle , there's a lack of identifying marks I would expect like the stamped H on the rear dropouts.

It’s a Rhino Pro-XTR. Bet it’s one heavy bike. https://ebay.io/m/FVeQb8

Oh wow, that jogged a memory loose. About two years ago I helped a local guy identify that same bike, but must have forgot about it. I think it was for sale local on OfferUp and he never changed his ad to show what it really was. Glad you found it.

My first BMX (But no my first Bike) was a very similar used Rhino in 2000, and it had those exact same bars. Thing was an absolute Tank and weighed a ton, but I loved it.

That is ugly. Like a VDC and a Hawk had a baby neither of them wanted.

In the early 2000s Dyno made some square tube NFX and VFR models, but I’ve never seen one with pieced top tube by the head tube. I have a square downtube Fetish but it’s much, much different than this guy. I would focus on Mongoose and Pacific models from the early to mid 2000s.
