I bought it recently but don't know much about the brand All Pro can anybody tell me anything about them?

Kmart had All-Pro as a store brand of bikes, but you will need pictures to confirm what you have. The Kmart All-Pro bikes were low end, made by Huffy or Murray.

^ What he said. Had 2 All Pros as a youngster before I got my first paying gig and jumped on the BMX bandwagon. Bottom of the barrel Kmart product.

Pretty much like finding a clean 1979 Chevy Citation in your grannie's barn.

There were also K-Mart AllPro bicycles made by Chiorda. All the Chiorda built examples encountered thus far were yellow and dated from the early 1970's.

Just cut to the chase and buy a Huffy.

That would be valuable. The first model year was 1980. Arrived in late 1979.
I considered one as my first new car. When the salesman showed the feature that the hood could swing 90° up to allow the removal of the motor easier for service later, I politely walked away. That and the poor body panel fit, scary. BTW, the Southern Pacific made special freight cars to transport the vehicles to protect them. Doors folded down, the care was driven on and anchored, then a skip loader tilted the door closed, the car sat anchored nose down.

Bought a Datsun 210 and dove it for 11 years, near 200,000 miles then sold it off. Would have kept it if not for all the parking lot hits it collected. I swear that car had a target painted on it somewhere.

To the All-Pro, yes, Kmart. I suggest invest time elsewhere.

Missed that one, did not visit a Kmart till 1976.

Good catch and believe it or not the best selling car in 1980. The motor was the least of the car's problems, at least in its 4 cyl Iron Duke variant, although it was severely underpowered and shook like a big rig diesel. Unbelievable to think they peddled this crap in an era that produced so many bicycles we still covet today.

Maybe those Chiorda-built All Pros would be like owning a Citataion X-11

A buddy had one with a 4 speed stick,pretty fast for an 80's car, but torque steer would rip your arms off.

The Citation and X-11 as new cars had something like 11 recalls by the first week of sales and something like 30 in their lifetime. Set a record for GM in that area. Roger
