Inside the Deadly Alliances and Betrayals Fueling the Hells Angels’ Ruthless Empire
Head Hunters are international and allies with Hells Angels. They have one known rival–the King Cobras–that are not the enemies of the Hells Angels. In 2001, one Head Hunters member got shot by an ex-Hells Angels member, but the two clubs continue to remain friends.
The Outlaws Have A Catchphrase Deriding Hells Angels
The Outlaws are one of the Hells Angels’ most famous enemies. The group was founded in Illinois, 1935 and consider themselves “the original biker gang.” They despise Hells Angels; many Outlaws use the phrase “ADIOS,” an acronym for “Angels Die In Outlaw States.”
Why the clubs became enemies remains a mystery. The most common theory is that one group accused the other of committing a crime against a member’s wife. The Hells Angels and Outlaws had many skirmishes in the United States, Belgium, and the United Kingdom.
The Hells Angels Helped The Sons Of Silence Grow
The Sons of Silence Motorcycle Club first appeared in Colorado in 1966. With less than 500 members, Sons of Silence is far smaller than Hells Angels’ 3,500 members. But that hasn’t stopped the two clubs from interacting.
In 1968, Sons of Silence formed an alliance with Hells Angels, which allowed them to grow. The partnership continues to this day, and the two clubs share many enemies, including the Outlaws. However, the two have also had some feuds. In October 2019, an arson was linked to a battle between the Hells Angels and the Sons of Silence.
As An Ally, The 69ers Also Ride American-Made Motorcycles
The 69ers are a motorcycle club founded in the 1980s, New York. Like the Hells Angels, the 69ers ride Harley Davidsons at every opportunity. Many motorcycle clubs aim to ride American-made bikes, the most popular of which are Harley Davidsons. Both Hells Angels and the 69ers tend to follow this rule.
Hells Angels have been around for longer than the 69ers, having started in the 1940s. While the 69ers only operate in the U.S. and Puerto Rico, Hells Angels are spread throughout 56 countries and still growing.
Breed Got Into Many Fights With Hells Angels
Breed was an American motorcycle club that formed in 1965, New Jersey. Before it disbanded in 2006, the group was an enemy of the Hells Angels. The two groups were such vicious enemies that they frequently got into fights.
The feud began in 1971, where Breed bikers in Ohio got into a skirmish with the Hells Angels. Over the next few years, the two groups got into many fights that resulted in the deaths of bikers on both sides.
The “Law-Abiding Citizens,” Iron Order, Are Hells Angels’ Rivals
The Iron Order is a bit different from other one-percenter motorcycle clubs. Instead of committing crimes, Iron Order bikers pride themselves on being “law-abiding citizens.” The Hells Angels consider them to be enemies, although it is unclear why.
Members of the Iron Order propose that the Hells Angels might feel threatened by them. The Angels follow a code of secrecy, and members are never allowed to talk to police or join the force. Since the Iron Order can work with police, the Angels might consider them to be dangerous.
Hells Angels’ Enemy, Gremium, Runs Germany
Gremium is the largest biker group in Germany, but details about their formation is scarce. However, some believe that the group branched off from other gangs, including Bones and Hells Angels. This could explain why Gremium is an enemy of the Hells Angels.
Although Gremium began in Germany in 1972, it eventually spread to 71 other countries. Hells Angels also ride in Germany, and their criminal records there are as recent as 2019. Perhaps these two gangs clash in several other countries.
Hells Angels Dislike The Highly Secretive Pagans
The Pagan’s Motorcycle Club (shortened to the Pagans) have conquered the middle and eastern United States since 1959. They are well-known rivals of Hells Angels and have gotten into many fights with them. However, little is known about them.
The Pagans are highly secretive. Despite this, they seem to be growing in popularity, exceeding 1,300 members in the U.S. and Puerto Rico. Unlike Hells Angels, the Pagans do not have clubhouses. They hold meetings at a secret area that members call “church.”
Fortunately, Bacchus Have Avoided Conflict With Hells Angels
Named after the Roman god of wine and agriculture, Bacchus is the oldest motorcycle club in Canada. Since 1972, their members have only ridden Harley Davidson motorcycles, much like the Hells Angels.
