Title: My brothers 1st build
Post by: southern andy on May 19, 2009, 08:44 PM
My brothers a bit of a chopper fan, he has about 4 i think but after i started building last year he has become interested.

This is his first attempt at an old school build. He's not a RAD member as he doesn't have the internet at home.

This is a Haro Group 1 RS2.

Thanks have to got to Del and Steve firebird especially for their obvious bits. I can't for the life of me remember who i bought bits off of for him to build this. I know Arnaud was one as the bars came from him. Also a few things were my spare bits that i'd of probably never used.

MCS Pro bars
Ame Grips
Redline twin pinchers
Elina flyte tech
Shimano sx pedals
DC 901 with tech 4's
Sumo rims
Suzue sealed hubs
Haro fusion post
SR stem
Uni plate

Be gentle with him, it was his first go  :LolLolLolLol:


I think he wants a red Haro plate for it rather than the Uni

Don't know about that mate  ??? He never said it was a problem. It was his second post on it though as his first one was a straight post but when he put it in or took it out to heighten it he screwed the chrome up, all but put a thread on it.  :LolLolLolLol:

Nutter.

He's after some dice dust caps aswell if anyone has some spare.


EDIT>>>>>> Both the pads and the stickers have a silver line around them, sadly it hasn't shown in the pictures but in the flesh it really finished it off well.

Something different i think. :4_17_5:

Impressive result for a first build  :daumenhoch: Glad to see you got good use for the bars mate.
I usually like them group1 frames in two tone, even custom colors, but that one all white is just simple and nice.
Nice custom bits too !!  ;)

Cheers Arnaud, i love these bars, three sets off you now.  :LolLolLolLol: My brother rode one of my bikes at Bournemouth with these bars on and decided he wanted some on his build.

Yep, he's been that long building this, October/November last year weren't it ????  It doesn't help when he doesn't have the internet and i have had to do all his searching for him.  ::)
