Title: HARO MASTER - My last build of 2007
Post by: Del on December 16, 2007, 05:00 PM
This has been on the stand for a while but I've been too busy recently to complete it, but today I thought i'd get on with it.
Bought this 88 master frame cheap from ebay, needed a bit of work as it was a mess but after atidy,  powder coat and got a custom decal set  made up by some idiot, i think its come out quite well. The plan was always to build this with 48's but I have a few sets of tuffs lying around and some nice white panaracer tyres so thought I'd see whsat it would look like..... I quite like the tuff look now to be honest. Thanks to Rob (Rarman1) for selling me the forks!.

Here is it with Super 7X's

Great lookin bike! I love the look of it with black Tuffs and white tyres. I'd love to have one of these again, but, as I'm into riding not restoring, I know I'd break the fork dropouts and crack the seatube gusset, just like I did to my '87 yellow Master. Mind you, that always gives you the excuse to beef them up so they don't break again...
I guess this bike will never be ridden, which is a shame 'cos those flipout forkstanders were brilliant for triple fire hydrant to decades!

Thanks for all the nice comments, I've got a set of Peregine HP48's I need to decal up and relace, so I think those with the white panaracers will set it off nicely.

a vice and a bit of brute strength did the trick!
Looking forward to seeing the Morales, I've got mine in the queue to be restored.
