1987 Haro Freestyler build

Hi, i'm new on here, as a kid always wanted a decent BMX now at 40 I might end up with one!

I've just won a 1987 Haro Freestyler frame and forks.

I have also bought the crank, chainwheel and peregrine seat clamp [ Attachment: You are not allowed to view attachments ] [ Attachment: You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Is there a list anywhere of the parts I need to build the bike to a fairly original spec?

what bearing kits do people use on their cranks?

do people use the tange headset kits on ebay at around £65?

What about the gyro?

I'm a total novice with these bikes so any advise or if you have any of the parts I require for sale let me know

Thanks Graham

I've got an 87 FST in building. But it's an 86 sport frame! Without the wrap round headline gusset

Here's a page full of catalogues. All the info you need is there

Got to love a haro mate ... Great choice for a first build!

Good starting build  :daumenhoch:

This may help if you trying for a real spec and not repop.

carmadham:
Thanks jaymz, that is a useful list.

What is a w/potts mod stem?

I googled yst bmx headset but all I can find for sale are chrome plated steel?

as I say this is a learning curve for me and I want to build something nice so all advice is welcomed and sorry about all the questions!
