'85 Haro Sport
« on: November 23, 2005, 08:26 PM »
Got the Z-rims on that Jay sent me last week. I've taken off the Tuffs to use on something else, but I think the Z's look sweet with the whitewalls.

Need to source some better brakes, and maybe change the chainwheel for a spider. I'm not too keen on the solid ones. I'd like some better condition pedals too, but they are DX's on there, so they'll stay for now.

I fitted Master decals instead of Sport ones, purely because I prefer the colour. My bike, my choice  ;)

Plenty more projects on the go, so I'll try and get some more pics up soon.

Cheers

Guy

gotta agre with you about the fusion chainring, its a little on the hideous side!
sweet looking bike apart from that ;)

i don't really like any of the 1 piece chainrings (apart from the early Redline Flite one of course ::)) i prefer the look of a Power Disc! even the name of it sounds tough LOL 8)

Chubs - They are 'Haro Bikes' grips

Stuntmaster - yes, it is original chrome, and it's in pretty good condition too, with minimal wear.

Orb - you could be right chap, I'm no expert. As far as I'm concerned, the earlier the better.   :)

It's definetly not an '84 and most definetley not an '85. Could be '87 or '88. Top tube kind of gives it away.

I think it's early 90's. That style top tube for the Sport came in after '89. Don't know when - but after.

the 90 in the serial number might be telling us something. It's a nice bike though, you don't see them very often the masters are quite common but not the sport.

The 2nd bike looks more like an 84 :)

Bob's right, the white one is an '84 and I suggest you've swapped at least the stems between the two?

I would if I were you - Good lad ;)

While your at it swap the wheels as well. That '84 should take pride of place (imho).
