mini bikes
In 1970, Arctic
Enterprises Inc. came out with their mini bike line
up. The production facilities were located in Thief
River Falls Minnesota. Over the next 3 years slight
engineering modifications were made to the frame to
make them better quality. All AC models used the
same frame from 1970 through 1972 with the exception
of the 72 Scout. In 1972, production was moved to
General leisure Products Corp, a subsidiary company
of Arctic Enterprises Inc.
