Cool bike, would swap the seat and grips for lue or the tyres for green. Its lovely though  :smitten:

Well saved, in the wrong hands, that'd be skip fodder looking like it did.

Grips and seat match, spot on.

Apparently, these have just the right geometry for Haro Vectors, nice one!

That looks awesome. Similar colour combo to what I'm going for on a build at present  :4_17_5:

There are a few lucky people on here who own one of these fantastic bikes and I am one of them. But original chrome ones? Wow. That is only the third one I know of so that's an awesome save, well done.

Gotta love a Badasslander........ ;-)
