Title: Newbie Q's New bike with retro look...Sort of :)
Post by: DaveB on November 03, 2006, 09:18 PM: Guy's

Just bought myself a new 2007 Haro F2, mainly just to have some fun on with a few mates who have done the same (not had a bike for 20 years) I know there completely different to the old school stuff but for my level of skill and what I'll be using it for I'm pretty sure it'll be fine, unless the bug bites again :)

Would really like to modify it a little with probably some of the stuff I had all them years ago, Tuffs, CW's, what's the veiw on this with regard to the integrety of the bike (strength etc) bearing in mind that I'm not gonna be asking it to do stuff most of the you guys expect your bikes to be able to do (me not being able too). Basically I have an idea of how I want my bike to look, is this worthwhile??

Any comments apopreciated.

Dave
