Title: 1975/6 whitehawk trials bike
Post by: nitrohopper on February 07, 2017, 11:59 AM

Here is what I beleave from talking to the builder Mr mick Whitlock the first ever whitehawk made in the 70s when mick was building motorcycle trials frames he saw the motobecane one and decided to have a go, this was the spark that started the whitehawk bmx brand (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170207/bae8b0f2acdc8707f9fe61739a5a8ce9.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170207/50f55b1d8c26f64512a2f52f1b1fadb5.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170207/9ece88d477935cf6e765ddcd44d6c858.jpg)
