Title: BMX Bi Weekly - V4 I 22
Post by: greentoad on May 07, 2007, 01:40 PM

Hi all

I think that I have ID'd the Procraft. I have been on with an old friend who had one and he thinks it was a Procraft Karate.

I have found that in -

BMX Bi-Weekly there is a test -

Volume 4 issue 22 - 1984
Racing action from Wigan on the cover.
Alan Woods, Why the B in BMX stands for BUSINESS! 2 page interview.
Wigan Final UK BMX National,
Pro Craft Karate test.

Can someone please scan the test and post the information, please.

All being well, it will be at Royston next Sunday for a leisurely cruise.

Any help, pictures, tests on Procraft are much appreciated.  

Thanks

J.

Thanks Kev

It is a great read and a very good report.

The test puts it as a good bike for the larger rider and it has hardly any faults.

Thanks for digging out the scans.

That's probably me!! ;D
Mine wasn't ever badged up as a Procraft but it definately had Karate decals on it.

Mine had red anodised rims. Nice bike, great quality on the welds.
