Vegan:
Some help needed guys, I have two of these frames, and forks now, It's so close to a Suzuki BMX i used to ride as a kid but think the rear drop outs are too stubby to be - can anyone please let me know what it is

Frosty:
Not sure but the rear drop outs are the same as the Taiwan produced Schwinn Predator that I have. These were very common and can be seen on a number of different brand bikes. The front one is a little less common, but a few bikes did have them including the Falcon range of bikes.

Know anything about Falcon?

did they subcontract frames to anyone else?

Wayne Ryder:
My first BMX was a Falcon Pro THETA, and I'm sure the headtube gusset was identical to yours. The whole frame looks pretty much as I remember it, in fact.
It was bought around the Summer of '83, not a bad bike to have started out on. First thing I bought was a chrome GT layback seatpost.
Don't know much about the company and what it did BITD, though.

Frosty:
Same here Wayne, removed the decals asap, got z rims, MX 1000's etc etc

loved that bike
