Just scored this beauty ...
New old stock! Heavy As Fook frame, mint chrome....... has the headtube decalof the fat gut poking out of some jeans saying 'Fat F**k'
(http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/bb233/tapperoon1/P1060044.jpg)
Also got these to go with it... rather rare methinks...
Anlun Suzue hubs laced to 48 hole UKAI HP-48 chrome rims - not marked as peregrine but as UKAI, so the forst versions then?
Also came with Haro HPF 2.0 tyres - gonna look a treat on this frame! All the other bits I have standing by to build it too, cant wait!

-
very nice heavy as fook, takes me back to when i brought mine brand new when they first came out :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:
-
nice from mansfield by any chance :)
-
Thank fook, seen you selling lots of stuff and thought you were giving up. That looks like a lovely build about to happen :daumenhoch:
-
Never seen the Ukai labelled rims before! :shocked:
-
very sweet haf and rims :daumenhoch: always loved those decals
-
the wheels /rims came after the ukai speedlines and obviously before peregrine
anlun stuff was used by peregrine also like the chainrings just re stickered
some haros had these fitted the wheels that is but only to the usa in chrome we had hard ano versions
i do stand to be shot down but as far as im aware thats kinda along them lines very nice set
-
Thought you were cuttin' back on the builds and doin' more ridin'...??
Naughty boy. :LolLolLolLol:
And weren't you gonna email me about chrome wheelsets...?
G ;)
-
mmmmmmmmmmmm. ffs Steve where'd you find that?
one of my favorite frames, I have a couple of these with no decals hanging up in me garage...trying to sell one, then the other will get built "rider style" eventually with survivor ditch forks...with the hot chick decal and some castillo bars.
(ps bmxbert I still wants your decalled up survivor frame that has these decals...but need to trade, have no funds right now)
-
just one more...... lol
Actually ive rid myself of loads of stuff - but this is replacing a pk ripper I have on ebay right now.
And G - if you ring Dan at Cyclesport 01476 590 500, tell him Steve sent you, he will sort you out big time with a Prolite cassette hub rear on an Alex chromerim, and a WeThePeople front on the same - I think itd be Supa G rims, perfect for your name! Or any pther rim of your choice - but he'll sort ou out big time with a great price. cheers!

nice one steve, haf frames rule :)
-
amazing the power of persuasion..........looks like i just got a nos haf :daumenhoch:

My 92 Master had those rims on it, I think they were OE on 92 Masters

Very nice find steve & those tires are very rare & hard to find too 8)
-
Maybe a biased viewpoint but i never liked the HAF, i always thought the seattube was way too long and made for a goofy feel. :-\
-
wow that master is f-in lovely id love to have one of those.
-
I sold it earlier this year to a very cool vert rider on here 8)
But yes it was fooking nice, it was Nos, I wish I could have kept them all :'(
-
I had a HAF,
working brake
tight chain
axle in drop outs
choose any 2 of 3, bucket of shite, no idea what I did with it
-
I rode a HAF in the mid 90's, and i remember it being just horrible really, too heavy etc, but was SO cool atthe time! I soon switched back to a Holmes.
But... for building a collection of old S&M's, the HAF is an important part of the puzzle!
-
a few people who rode them found them too heavy, i bought mine brand new and only kept it for a month before swapping it for gt's newly released fueller frame and fork with 1/18th aheadset :idiot2: :idiot2: :'( :'( :'( :2funny: :2funny:
-
funnily enough i rode one of those 92 ground masters until it snapped at the toptubes on a big bail (backflip jetision on radlands vert)
then i got a haf. rode it for 3/4 months and then got rid. didn't get on with it. just horrid to ride.

Ah, you should have got one of the special short tt flat land HAFs, you might have got on better with that.
(If you aint flatlanding tho, its even worse to ride! :LolLolLolLol:)

S&M have pretty much always offered custom frame making and they made a batch of short HAFs. The story was that they were for the far east. Rory has a custom HAF with a canti brake under the seat stays.

yeah ive seen that on bmx museum....its really nice tidy as well to be honest its what made me want to get one but dont tell him :-X
his holmes is bloody nice to :daumenhoch:
