Title: 1992 Haro - My little brothers build
Post by: Jaymz on February 13, 2016, 02:54 PM

I guided my younger brother through this build carefully and he had to be re educated about survivors.
He picked this up complete. Tyres were shot. Brake lever was awful and nasty mongoose pedals. These parts were replaced and a pad from the 1992 catalogue was reproduced by Steve.
Big thanks on this build to ed for having the 1992 catalogue to hand in a high enough resolution that we could read the spec.
I just love the patina on the frame. And glad my brother listened to me, and has seen the light that not everything needs refinishing

1992 Haro Group 1b
Frame and forks 1991 full cro moly.  Cromoly bars.
