I am a Hot Rod magazine subscriber and seen this pic in one of the articles. he is a photographer bob D Olivio. just wondering what kinda of bike he is riding. i like the single down tube. the pic was taken in the late 50s.

Caper Falcon?

It is a GoKart Cycle Big Bear Scrambler, the pic you have would have been taken in the early to mid 60's

I think HP is correct that it's a GoKart cycle.....

Picture would be from '58-'62. I beleive GoKart shut down in '63.
