Hawthorne Beaters--Post Them Here!

[the tinker]

I'll start this post out with this 5bar, one of my favorites. This is a DP Harris frame.
I cut the original front fender in half and put it on the back.
Great rider and fun bike. Took these photos about a half hour ago.

Here is my early Hawthorne Zep ( side fork lock ) beater, sorry only a before pic but someday there might be a after pic!

The Hawthorne I should not have sold. Still miss that bike but the new owner absolutely loves it (& gave me the "NOT FOR SALE" price) so it's all good.

Found this one at a yard sale a few years ago. Bought it from the son of the original owner. It even still had the child seat on the back he used to ride around in. Nice bike!
