A bad Haro copy...

<< < (5/17) > >>

bmxer4ever:
To be honest. we used to do exactly the opposite of this. we'd get a cheap bike when we started, slowly replace the crap parts with good ones, then, once we'd saved up the dosh, get a good frame to go with the good parts.....

The euro copy theory is a good one. And Gen ones were made in '82 and '83, so if it's a mid eighties custom order, I doubt it would be like this, it would look more like a MASTER..

Yep, this one IS gonna run and run!
With real ones going for a grand, is it any wonder there's gonna be a fake market cropping up too?!

Dave.....not everybody had rich Mummies and Daddies to buy us all Flight Cranks etc. Not a dig at you mate but my parents weren't exactly loaded when I was a kid so my bike didn't always have the best parts on it. Then when I started doing milk/paper rounds and all that sh1t I could afford to buy better stuff.

Couldn't agree more, although my parents were far from poor i had to (post Night Burner, which they bought) buy all my bmx stuff from money i earned from my pt time job i started at 14, and when i very first got my 85 Haro Sport f&f i had sod all money for good quality parts and most of them came from my Firebird which in turn had come from my Night Burner, it took quite a while before i built the Haro up to an acceptable standard, and even then the parts were only mid-range quality and a lot of the snot nosed mummies boys at the Inverness competitions used to snigger at the dodgy parts on the sweet Haro frame :Aresehole: s
