My New Haro Freestyler
Kaner:
I bought this '84 Foreign Freestyler' as a complete bike some time ago off fleebay, its changed a bit since then too. I am a complete Haro convert!
This is how it arrived:
and these didn't show the harsh rust on the other side, it pretty much looked like it came out of a pond, but was solid.
So I had it stripped and painted by Neil who did a brilliant job, and was very much helped by Jj to get it there (thanks Buddy!) dropping it off to Neil on his way North. Del supplied the decals.
and this is its current state, most parts are NOS and it will be tweeked a little bit just to finish it off . . . hope you like it? :smitten:

Cheers Rob, glad you like it, I'm smitten!
I will do the tyres at some point, I have just received some green cables to put on it, I'm going to replace the crank with a minty refurbished one Chromo one and the seat post will be replaced for the original Reynolds 531 once I have had it re-chromed.
Not a great deal really, just a little tweeking ;)

WOW :shocked:
How it should be done an 84 freestyler with 84 parts ( Sx's and 901/880 's )
:coolsmiley:
one piece good choice, brakes, good choice (prefer a 880 on the front for perfection :daumenhoch: ), Z's excellent choice instead of Tuffs for this build
Very nice :4_17_5:
