Title: new ride
Post by: Rombloke on September 11, 2005, 07:37 PM: ok picked up the f + f from jim yesterday and didnt want to build it up till i had all the bits i wanted, but couldnt resist the temptation. so using some bits from my master i built it up...1982 haro freestyler, new decals, bars, seat, and brakes are on the way as we speak (well i hope) but still needing some rat trap pedals and two finger levers

Post by: ORB on September 12, 2005, 02:40 PM: Good work Mr Giller.

when that bike comes to a show or event, you will have to lock the rear cable on, it is more rare than a rare thing in a rare place at a rare time of the year.

Mr Stupple, we are waiting....
