Drove out of work today and saw a guy riding a very nice old school chrome Haro freestyler - twin top tubes style with black skyways and green cables going into the rotor. Looked like a series one if that's right - never was very good at freestyle bikes as I was into racing at the time. Early 80's definately and looked incredibly mint from what I could see.
Beautiful sunny day and the guy looked like he was out for a bimble. I was the guy in the Saab convertible staring at the bike just outside Proctor and Gamble!
That's the second old school BMX I've seen on Wallisdown road this month - there was a guy recently on a really nice Diamond Back - looked like a silver streak or a Viper but as it was across the road I couldn't make it out.
Is there much of an old school scene in Bournemouth. Must get the Laserlite out!

Should have hunted him down and get his number to buy it! :D

Then Matt (Swivel) would tell you its rubbish or snide and offer to take it off your hands as a favour....

i may have been a new haro freestyler.
-
Might have been I guess but it looked very convincingly old school - and without being too offensive, he looked about my age, which is old enough to know better than to trundle around on a kids bike, and he looked like he enjoyed a beer or three.
Actually, it looked like he was having a right old laugh in the sun and had dusted the old girl off for a bimble

i live near there and know of a guy with a diamondback,few other bikes he has too,goes by the name of rogaar something on ebay,nice guy,dont think he has a haro though but he may not have showed me all his bikes when i went round there!
reckon there are a few old schoolers in the bmth /poole area,i restrict my bimbling to my close at the mo,but will venture further when i get a comfier seat! :Great_Britain: :daumenhoch:
