Looks good as it is from the photo's. 8) Strip and a clean could be suffice. :daumenhoch:

They hide the truth mate ... The paint is rough ..
I have made some progress this week had an afternoon in the garage I managed to get the decals off the bike they are knackered but could be copied I think this is going to be the expensive part of the build .. Under the decals the paint was new sort of gave me the boost of energy to get on with it I can see what the bike could be ..stripped most the paint from the frame keeping in mind my tight budget I did this by hand wishing I had taken it to the shot blaster after 2 hours ..
Will post up a few pictures when I get the laptop out ...
Just a quick couple question for anyone who can help what size is the bottom bracket bearing on these bikes looks like 19mm and can you replace individual spokes to re spoke a wheel the spokes ain't that bad but for £8 for a set it will make a big difference to the bike ..
Kit list of parts needed
Head bearings
Wheel ball bearings
Gyro cables top and bottom
Front brake cable
Tyres tubes and tape
Bottom bracket bearings and covers
pedals
Brake blocks
Need to get all this for 50 quid :slayer:

1) bearing - Yeo, should be American bottom bracket, 19 mm bearing size. ... I think :D
2) decals- have alook, could be the set you need -->http://bmxmuseum.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=400240 .....in case our own decal mäster del aint got a set
3) spoke individually - sure you can respoke individual spokes. Looks You need Spokes 2.0mm straight gauge ( https://knowyourbike.com/haro/mirra-540/2000 )
Edit: about 1) yep should be 19 mm, äs i've seen a 1999 Model with 19mm (http://bmxmuseum.com/bikes/haro/63623 darkian's) and a 2003 also running 19mm (http://bmxmuseum.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=230792 wired's resto (post #25) )
