Title: Where did all the Team Karate's go?
Post by: duncan on May 24, 2006, 08:49 PM

I knew several people who had one, I'm sure they were popular in the 1980's, but I've yet to see mention of them on this or any other site.
They were similar to a Haro Freestyler with the double toptubes, and were usually chrome.

Another bike that was often seen was the Halfords BMX. I remember they produced several models, but the red one with red rims was the one I remember.
There must almost have been as many Halfords bikes as Burners around, yet they seem to be scarce now. Where are they all?
