Yes I know Hawk, the one you probably have.
Is it a cruiser you have? I know somewhere a cruiser!
Hawk copied several parts, like tuf pro stems.
Hawk was a lower end brand, made in taiwan.
Sold (in Holland) in 83-84.

Mr Humps indeed has one of those in his stable. His youngest James(the one who like clip shoes :idiot2:)was riding it today at Dagenham.
