Title: Just so people don't think i'm an essex myth - Green 1985 Haro Master Completed
Post by: Swivel on April 08, 2011, 01:23 PM: Hi all, after Craig said that my bikes were an essex myth the other day ;D it spurred me on to get this one done. Chrome survivor 1985 in the works, about 2 weeks away from being completed now... in the meantime, here's a near factory spec Green Survivor 1985, era correct factory detail everywhere apart from the cranks are CT's and not 400's but these still look lovely. Its been years since i've shown a bike on here but i'm glad to have finally have done that! I hope you like it. I will be rolling out a few survivor builds soon and also the 1984 i'm finishing and the Pink 1985 master too. Thanks to Phil Sawzall, Jai, Del and Dom/Jay/Chris for inspiration.

Parts rundown:

- Green 1985 early serial master survivor (original paint/decals)
- NOS Dia compe seat clamp
- NOS white dominator seat
- Mint panaracer freestyle tyres
- NOS MKS Graphite pedals
- KMC Z chain
- Mint Sugino CT crank
- Dia Compe 880 brakes with tech 4 and 85 dated cables and white DC brake pads
- Redline forklifter stem suntour stamped
- Hatta headset
- Rear alloy and plastic front tuffs (front is NOS)
- Original chrome haro freestyle bars
- Oakley B2 grips NOS

Matt ;)
