Title: Yet another 1989 Haro Bashguard Master build, PIC HEAVY.
Post by: Robbo on June 09, 2012, 11:46 AM: Beleive it or not its been a year since I built the last one of these and that went just before xmas, I've been missing having a bashguard bike so when I was offered this recently I couldnt turn it down.

Rad's bashguard specialist is back!! :LolLolLolLol:

This turned up at my office last Friday and thanks to an amazing turn around by SBD and superb work by Del its done exactley a week later. Thanks guys! :4_17_5:

Thanks go to Costa for the primo cranks, I think they look so much better than the twin pinchers I had before. :daumenhoch:

And a big thanks to discostu for the fork standers and the pitbull brake which he also polished for me!! :4_17_5:

The bike was an original half chrome and black bike, I wanted to go custom but decided to take it back to its original finish.
