Title: Haro Master - Nearly Ready for Freestyle
Post by: greentoad on August 25, 2006, 06:53 PM

Hi all

Some of you may remember this -

It was in a real state and the owner did not want it to be mint, so that he could still use it for no handed cherry pickers, tail whips etc and also wants to get 6 foot again using it on the ramps.

It has come out very well, and is pretty much how it was in early 85.

All it needs now is a few more hours of cleaning, the cables all cut and fixed for the rare RGD, a set of blue tuff pads, and a chain.

What do you reckon?

I love it, and it brings back so many memories for me seeing it from back in the day and being able to work on it now.

I have also managed to save all the stickers - on the spindle, rims, seat post and bars so that it is exactly how it was when it did demo's and shows with Jon ridding it whilst working with Mason Smith.

That is looking really nice.  You don't see many in chrome, most folk seem to have gone for white or green.   :daumenhoch:

Very Very nice, I think Green really goes well on Chrome, I also really like to see spokes on a Haro.

I would not change anything on that, it looks spot on  :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:
