80s Wilson BMX Help / Info

I remember seeing a Wilson freestyler F&F in Halfords in Bristol. It was priced at £89 & looked just like a gen1 Haro Master. Same underneath bottom gusset holding the down tube to the head tube. Same double top tubes but I cant remember the drop outs or if the forks looked the same. I only ever saw one at Halfords & it was just the F&F. This would have been around 82-83ish.

But your right, I've just looked on google & theres nothing about them.  :-\

daz bmx it!:
Easy to spot as they had a 5" headtube :daumenhoch:

In 1980, my brother got his Steve Wilson bmx with suspension forks I think, like a motocross bikes forks.  I got my Wilson bike about 6mths later.  They were complete bikes but he would put any parts on we wanted, for example, I remember having a yellow Elina seat with a red lightening streak on it.  I have some old pics of the bike which I will dig out.  I loved my Wilson.

Got these pics to hand but won't really help you with restoration...




My brother is on a Wilson (2nd from left, no. 11)
