make sure you save the Tuffs cos they'll be a great project for next winter.

I have spent 16 hours on those knackered tuffs already! Another 8 hours and I reckon and they will be ready to roll! Im tempted to dye them blue for the Haro, like you said though, they can wait til winter and Im stuck in the house because of the crap weather!

It's your ride and I'm not telling you how to build it, that is of course your prerogative, but to suggest putting 880/901's on a freestyler from '84 is just wrong (imho).

I'm just a bit fed up with paying so much for a set of 1000's, 901/880 is going to have to do it Im afraid, and 1000's just shouldnt go with tech 4's, it would be another £200 which I would rather put into something else . . . I've just realised I'm ranting :-X
I LOVE MY MASTER :D

I know what your saying and I wasn't having a dig at your ride, like I said, it's yours and you build it how you want to (and I think it's great by the way). It was more as a general comment about being era/style correct for the anal people like me.

Dia compe 880's were designed for freestyle bikes though and along with tech 4 levers were made in late 1984 , they even came supplied on Haro's
The Haro master 85 was supplied with 880 front not MX900/1000 ( but granted 84 Sport bike came with a MX 900 set up I think ;) )
Elina flyte tech seat 1984, Redline forklifter stem 1984 and Shimano SX pedals 1983 8)
Not sounding clever or telling you how to suck eggs , just trying to justify their era correctness . :) :angel:
I love era correctness on builds too , it's a priority to a great build :smitten:
