I was concentrating that hard on not having a droopy end I never noticed...... I could lie and say its so I can reach the bars  ;D

Title: Re: 83 Haro Freestyler *Finally finished*
Post by: OrgasmDonor on January 18, 2015, 11:26 AM

actually a good point, as seat tip should reach the bars/grips for freestyling/bar grip grabbing, I only really ever build race bikes, so did not give the functionality of the seat position a thought. note to self: think before you type  :LolLolLolLol:

I like tinkering.... To be honest i get my enjoyment out of resurrecting a wreck rather than lego building carpet tarts .......  I've built every OS bike i ever wanted to own so i can't complain ;)

Nothing wrong with a bit of Jif action Bert. You do build some fantastic bikes, and this is no exception. Top notch stuff  :4_17_5:
