My Bike...lives again

blobb:
Hello there. Feel like I've known you lot for years - anyway finally got it together to post some pictures. Having been through a few bikes in my youth I needed a rider to get about on so I bought this new from a local shop in Portsmouth. Cheap. It's a Haro REVO, probably around 96 ish and nothing to get too excited about but it has served me well over the years and I kept it in good nick. However, the original wheels werent really built to last so when I started looking for some new ones as a replacement I thought sod it lets give it a makeover. Now it has been given a new lease of life and I'm back in the saddle. Great fun. I might be thinking about ditching the frame for something a bit better - any suggestions?

Plus a bonus piccy of my bruv demonstrating the kind of aerial prowess I'm sure we all dream of. Southsea circa 84, check out the potts mod cable before stem bolts had holes in. Nice bike that, redline with lots of trick bits - whatever happens to these bikes?????

Righty ho, lets see if we can get this photobucket thingy working.

Bob_Acid:
Nice one.  :daumenhoch:


As for what new frame to go for? have a chat with the lads in the new skool section, they'll point you in the right direction.

sawzall:
nice and a cool old southsea pic,that brings back some memories :)

kdw712:
nice to see the old pic  :)

and the haro looks good too   :daumenhoch:

NS frames; try & ride as many as you can before you buy

oberonspacefruit:
that haro looks ok....id ride that for a bit longer if i were you...

at least until your skill level feels like its keeping you back.

but then again, we all know that wont happen, i change my bike more often than i change my underpants.
