1985 Falcon Prostyler

1985 Falcon Prostyler

Rare Falcon Prostyler Fully Restored

Bought this in 2008 for £150 it was a wreck! Had it all re-powdered, new decals made from the originals, new handlebars, new seat, new grips, new chain, new tyres, restored the Acorn Freestyle Mags via dying, bought a new repro padset. Ended up costing me the best part of £500 in the end! I believe this bike to be very rare, no-one seems no know anything about it and i cant find any documentation on it, it has built in stunt pegs witch is rare and a 2 piece split frame design (top bar). If anyone has any info it would be GREATLY appreciated! I am currently in the process of making it Euro (all white) so white Skyway Tuffs, white grips and white pedals.

Re: 1985 Falcon Prostyler

WOW - this was my my bike as a kid, heres a little history. It was bought for me one christmas from my mums 'Empire Stores Catalogue' - it was cheaper (£129.99) than the gold Mag Burner on the 'better bike' pages.

I prefered this bike because of the braised on pegs at the forks and the platforms on the back, also the stand plate behind the seat post. I later (as was the done thing at the track) removed the pads, from the C-Dubs and the frame, always kept the 'knacker pad' around the stem, and covered every part that could be stood on in 'grip tape'

The original bike had OGK styles wheels - copies!

This bike maybe wasn't the coolest bike around at the time, but mine sure did take some knocks, - it sure was stronger than my wrist and my ankle!!!

I later replicated the colour scheme when I had my skyway quadrangle.
