Ok, this bike will have been hyped about far to much in the DP build off thread but as its not often I build a bike from the ground up I thought it be worth sticking in this months BOTM.

I'm loving this bike so far as its my first dabble with something from the 80's, feels really good as the components on this relate to the time when I had my BMX's.

I'd be chuffed with a single vote

Ash, that's what this is all about bud - I'll be voting for it just for that fookin' chain guard bud - proper old-school

Ok then, this has been a bit of a labour of love and Jurassic timescales to get sorted, but here is my 1988 Haro Sport finally

A bit of Metalmagic powdercoating, Steve Firebird pads and of course some special Del fairy dust, and here she is

Raleigh Pro Race
its not perfect but for me to get it 100% would have cost 3-4 times the amount that it has actually cost me which is £230 and that includes the initial cost of the bike which was £100
indeed a bargain pro :cool:

Kungfunky??? A strange description on the basher? I owned that bike untill the end of this summer? I chucked it together to race at MK this year for a laugh after buying the frameset and wheels from Jia the year before? Very strange?
