Arnaud vous entrez dans la ligue superbe du bâtiment de vélo avec cela GHP et type de votre Haro. Mon aint de Gt a obtenu une chance dans le vélo du mois maintenant :4_17_5:

lovely dude, but didnt the Pro I's n Pro II's have little gussets? re: mine in the museum, pro I. i could be wrong tho
-
Arnaud vous faites une habitude de construction de quelques vieux vélos d'école stupéfiants. Un autre fantastique construire. :daumenhoch:

Cheers guys for the french words, I'm having a good laugh with the automatic translator, as I bet you're cheating Paul ;) :LolLolLolLol:
OD, clearly remember yours :daumenhoch:, truth is I'm no expert in GHP's, very little info available on these, even their creator doesn't seem to remember all the details..

they snapped! and the pro I's n II's had a likkle gusset to prevent this, i reckon yours is a late Pro, pre pro I's n II's, those decs are deffo not original to the frame, so what ya got is prob nicer than ya thought :daumenhoch:
is there a GHP expert who can confirm this, as im not fully speced up on pro II's, but i can not for the life of me imagine that they would have done away with the gusset

c'est magnifique Arnaud :daumenhoch:

That wouldn't match with the late 85 serial then, think I saw different styles with or without gussets..
Anymore info obviously welcome :daumenhoch:

Hutch pedals with red or gold cages would make it even better!
That would have been a nice option for sure, Glen
Went for what suits a GHP nicely according Greg Hill himself BITD, SR speedtraps ;)
