Which bikie gang in australia is the biggest

The gang operates in as many as 27 countries and poses a criminal threat on six continents, according to the US Department of Justice. The club's criminal activities are known to include drug production, transportation and distribution, as well as extortion, murder, money laundering and motorcycle theft. Membership in the US is limited to white males who cannot be into child molestation, and the club's website boasts that each of its members rides, on average, 20, miles a year.

In Australia, the club says it has 10 active chapters in all states except WA and Tasmania and also in the Northern Territory. Recent reports suggest that the Angels are trying to widen their footholds in the drug trade, bringing them in direct conflict with rivals such as the Comancheros. Formed in California in the s, the Mongols Motorcycle Club is inspired in name by the empire of Genghis Khan and is believed to have about 70 chapters nationwide. Many US members are former members of Los Angeles-area street gangs, leading the powerful US Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms to consider it the "most violent and dangerous" bikie gang operating there.

Recent reports in the Fairfax media indicate the club has been scoping out territory for the club in Sydney and on Queensland's Gold Coast. A patched member from the Mongols' France-based chapter had moved to the Gold Coast and aligned himself with the Finks, Fairfax reported last week, in an expansion bid.

The Finks arguably made their name in Australia after the "Ballroom Blitz", a gang fight with Hells Angels members at a Gold Coast kickboxing tournament in featuring guns, knives, knuckledusters and chairs.

According to recent reports, the Finks are planning to patch over their whole group to the international powerhouse Mongols in a bid to become the most-feared outlaw club in Australia and circumvent moves by authorities to have the club declared a criminal organisation under controversial anti-association laws. It is believed to also have prompted the Federal Government to send a new federal anti-gang squad to Queensland's Gold Coast to help the State Government in its crackdown on bikie gangs.

The patchover would involve the Finks swapping club support gear with Mongols "colours" and removing Finks club tattoos. Thought to have instigated the Milperra massacre, the Comancheros are seen as encouraging a growing trend among bikie gangs to allow non-bikies to join. The Daily Telegraph reported in August that the self-proclaimed national leader of the gang, Mark Buddle, had neither a motorcycle licence nor a bike. The Victorian police earlier this month charged five members of the Comancheros over a recent spate of shootings in Melbourne's south-east.

All but one of the Comancheros were accused of running a debt-collecting syndicate which allegedly uses violent standover tactics to get money from victims.
