    Width of Hawk

    Hi, What is the maximum width of a stock Hawk/Bros i.e. from the end of one handlebar to the tip of the other? I have a garden gate that is 70cm (27.5 inches) in width at it's widest when opened. Do you think it will be possible to get one through with a bit of wriggling, leaning and twisting of the handle bars?

    through a 27" wide gate? yea, easily.
    down a 27" wide alley way... that would be difficult.

        Thanks for the replies. The gate opens out into a 4 foot wide alleyway. If I struggle I can always get the saw out and cut some handlebar holes in the gate

        If the guy at work brings it in tomorrow (weather permitting) and the haggling goes well I could well be the proud owner of a 650 Bros this time tomorrow.

              Got my Bros 650

              ...And it fits through the gate fine.

              I'll post some pics at the weekend at a more scenic location.
