Haro Gen 2 Master Found
Moose:
Hey Jem
If I can make it on Saturday we should be able to identify it quite easily as I own both a gen 1 freestyler and a gen 1 '84 master (currently in negotiations with the missus as she wanted to go trawling the garden centres on Saturday) ::)
Have a read of this, it will help identify the different '84 masters. http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/index.php'topic=11742.0
Rom bloke is right about the gussets on the gen 1 freestylers, but I have yet to see one without the weld. As it stands, if my theory about gen 1 serial numbers is accurate, there are so far no surviving 1982 models. There is a member on VBMX that has said his has the early gusset, but I've not seen a picture. I meant to PM him, but couldn't be arsed :buck2:
Rombloke:
moose if you have bob haros frrestyle moves book, check page 16 and you can see the unwelded gusset on bobs very own bike, this being the only one ive ever seen, and it was only eagle eyes stupple who pointed it out to me....cheers bill
and its on pg 17 you can clearly see the dropout without the knurling, although this could have course be a torker drop out.....can anyone confirm that.....id still like to know what stem he run though
mcs 6 bolt????

Bren Gunn:
Great thread... keep the info coming :daumenhoch:
radders:
The generation 1 Freestyler, the one Bob is on in his book and the one Billy Stupple had, had the gap in the weld on the gussett. The other difference between the Freestyler and the Master is the Freestyler had a 1 1/4 inch downtube, whereas the Master had a slightly thicker 1 3/8 inch downtube. The other variations on the Master come down to whether it was first batch of US made, Second batch of US made, or Taiwanese manufactured.
