Assistance in identifying an old BMX bike
Discussion
I am trying to identify a tatty old BMX bike we have found in the loft of my late brother’s house.
I am from the original Raleigh Chopper generation so long before BMX became popular so know nothing about BMX and am trying to decide whether it is scrap for the recycling centre or whether it may be a collectable retro bike to an ex-BMXer, albeit in need of restoration.
My best guess is it is an Odyssey and the parts I can identify are 34R Orto cranks, Odyssey 41 fork, Odyssey headset, Cinema 777 rims, BSD Pivotal saddle, Sunday! Seat clamp and Amity stem.
Any information very gratefully received.

Looking at it with the removable gyro tabs at headset area it is around 2010
Also if you look at down tube on frame it is gusseted where it meets headstock. Sunday made these from around 17 years ago. Then moved on too running ribs all the way down to the cranks for strength.
This is mines. I bought the frame alone 4 years ago
