Bought this 18" wheel Hawk Cycles bike a couple of weeks ago off the bay, it was filthy and most of the chrome had a light coating of rust. fortunately the saddle had no damage and the mudguards, chainguard and Swallow white line tyres were still fitted. Took it to bits and thoroughly cleaned and greased everything. The chrome came up much better than expected. The biggest hag we getting the electrical tape and the glue it left off each spoke, why would anyone do that

Hi, dont know really know mate   , must be early 80's, cant find hardly any info about them, I think Super Grip said they were sold through Woolworths (classy!) an old chap from a local bike shop confirmed this. I would pay mega bucks for a brochure.
