Falcon Tioga Mini
monkian:
I wonder if the EO symbol could be something like an OEM Original Equipment Manufacture stamp?
Maybe Engineering Order. I guess Falcon would have dealt with Tioga who then dealt with Tange so it could have been a Tange Factory thing for Tioga ??? ;)
Twesnik:
Might be,that one on eBay,was dated '84 & had that significant diamond stamp with ES in it!
Diff Forks tho.....
TBC?
:LolLolLolLol:
monkian:
Hmmm. Good guess though :chin: ::) ;D :whistle:
That Swan Guy:
The taller Falcon riders did indeed ride the Rhino Charge stickered up as a Falcon as Falcon never produced a race worthy frame themselves; a bit like Raleigh in that sense. Jeff Bishop, Gary Fenwick and the Maw family all rode them. Jonty Maw still has his brother's, the late 3 times World Champion David Maw, bike that his lad rides on the Cleethorpes outing every year. It's a mini and looks very Tange. I can check next time I see him but I am sure it was built especially for David.
Twesnik:
Good input on this matter!
Thx,upfront.....
THE Forks here are diff,on add are pictured Tioga Decals,still have to check THE date-stamp on Forks on THE one here,Will do later today!
