This is REALLY cool. Top job John :daumenhoch:
(Taken from Dig Magazine site)
Pilgrim’s John Buultjens has been obsessed with Haro for a long time now and for the past 15 years he has worked hard on seeking out this wild collection of Haro’s from 1982 up to 1993. This past weekend John managed to complete his collection and to celebrate he made this video taking us through the bikes and giving us a bit of background on some of his finds. This is pretty impressive!

Get it bought then!! :4_17_5:
-
he wont sell it ive been trying to buy it back for years.........it was one of them frames that was passed around to everyone in our group as they wasnt a bike to ride in the late 90s are they were quite old by then............
-
i got it off carlo in 92 i think, he had been to shinner and had come home with about 12 airmasters, it was left outside his house next to his vert ramp for about a month before i got it...hopefully one day i will be able to buy it back or my friend :wtf:will get round to restoring it back, i dont think he has got the forks for it anymore which ive been told are quite hard to get hold of but the frame and bashguard are all good.....

It's great knowing and seeing people like John and their passion and collections
True dedication ,,okay obsession :D :4_17_5: :4_17_5: :4_17_5:

to be honest.. could have done with less chat and seen more of the bikes :-X

i do like how he point out how hard airmasters are to get hold of, that does make me happy!! :)

Hey Alex! Thanks to everyone for all the great comments on my Haro collection. The video was a bit of a rush. I have 10 mins to film and then we had to have all the bikes out of the bowl and outside for a photo shoot. I would have loved to have spoken about all my bikes, but you would have been bored. Every model I have as you would know took me years to complete. Sorry I didn't get individual shots of each bike, but classic BMX did. Anyway thanks again for all your kind thought's and complements on my wee haro collection. I have just joined the site, but I will have a profile and pics up soon. Cheers John

amazing collection John,
somebody NEEDS to do a book or a full length video of all the bikes in detail :)
-
Thanks again guy's! Most of the bikes are back wrapped up in there boxes and in storage. I know this is not a good thing, but my insurance company will not cover there total value. I have been working for many years on the Generations Of Freestyle. The next time these bikes are seen they will be out for good. I will make a video of each bike and how I came about so many of the parts. It's pretty crazy that I own 15 sets of Peregrine super pro's plus 3 set's of Ukai with Peregrine hubs and 10 set's of Fusion alloy cranks. Yes fellas, I have a sickness!
-
Amazing collection John, great video. Don't worry about your sickness, we all have it on here to some degree.........
-
It's not sickness. It's love. :smitten:
-
Seriously stunning line up there John :4_17_5:
-
Totaly Stunning collection :4_17_5:
-
what an amazing collection....i deffo need a haro in my life...jb
-
@John, VERY impressive indeed. I may now just go ahead and add one (a first Haro ive ever owned) to my small but now growing collection of bikes.
Think your peregrine mags are the wrong way round on the baby blue Sport BTW?
Thanks for sharing
