Silver Redline Flight BB (modern type)

(1/2) > >>

Stevo:
Seen a few pics of Haros with a silver BB cup. I have modern flights but the cups are black.  The silver ones look much smarter.

Has anyone seen silver cups that are available to buy separately? Or failing that a complete set of modern (2 pinch bolt) Flights with the silver cups. Thanks

Steve P:
The later Redline cups are anodised ... use oven cleaner or caustic soda to strip and then polish  :daumenhoch:

Stevo:
Great, thanks for the tips. I have used caustic soda on other parts so I know it work really well.  :daumenhoch:

Thanks looks like a cool Sport resto. Is it in the museum, so I can look at full pics?

That Sport is awesome nothing there I would change.

I am going to re-build my Master as the original spec of complete Haro bikes from BITD

With regards to using caustic soda, would the water not get into the bearings? I know they are sealed but sure some water must get in.
