My rider, show us yours....
« on: December 11, 2009, 12:04 PM »
Just put this together, recently powdered white with new Del's decals, redline flight cranks, group 1 stem, nippons, sugino this and that etc... all nice parts. Replacing tuffs with alloy hubbed ones when they arrive. Every year I keep thinking I want a rider as I'm getting older, I have to do this now or I never will. So I've decided to build the bike that got me into it in the 1st place and now I have one I can chuck about, my all time favourite the 1985 Haro Master. You purists will notice that the forks aren't correct, they are in fact 1986 Haro Sport forks that came with it, hence the pegs  ;) Bike is built with restored or NOS parts.

I hope you like it! What's your rider?

Matt  :daumenhoch:

Almost is Del, feel a bit guilty but can't keep looking at all of this stuff and not riding it, so this is finally my rider and I intend to get out a lot more now  :D

I really wanted to ride a custom TA I am working on, but I ran out of time this week and I will never get it finished in time.

So Its going to be the Kuwi.

How about you?
