1997 Haro Shredder Deluxe survivor :-)
« on: June 30, 2011, 07:57 AM »
1997 Haro Shredder Deluxe - gold metal flake.

I owned this bike in 1998 until 2000. Just tracked down the guy I sold it to and got it back off him... had to laugh as he said when he brought it I had put it in a shop window with a note on that said 'Need to sell to buy pram'!

Needs a good clean and a new freewheel but its in real good condition for a bike thats been in constant use. Gonna swap a few bits around and get riding it again after 10 years. There's only one on the museum and thats not got any decals :-) maybe 'cause all the other broke  :daumenhoch:

4130 Haro Shredder Deluxe frame & forks
48 hole Araya 7x rims
Bars...? no idea
A-Headset (Dia-Compe)
Fusion stem
Fusion pedals
Fusion seatclamp
HL layback seatpost 25.4mm/2003.01
Padded DK seat
175mm Fusion 1 piece crank
44t Haro Directional chainring
KMC chain
Rush brake (rear),
DC Bulldog (front)

Cool  :)

I put this bike together back in 98 when a skateshop I hung around gave up selling bmx stuff and let me build some bits that were left into a bike - I had no idea - I just grabbed stuff that looked cool and wacked it on to be a rider.

Was a bit puzzled as to why the Haro tyres had gone...? Apparently the guy who had it lent it to a mate for a few years but his missus had caught him cheating and slashed the bike tyres  :shocked: when she found out it wasn't her (ex) boyfriends bike she brought some new tyres for it  :LolLolLolLol:

Just sold the bars for £85....  :)

Didn't realise there were less than 40 sets made though  :shocked:

They went to a good home on here and I avoided 'theBay' so I'm happy  :daumenhoch:

yep they are fine Jim  :daumenhoch:

I was a bit concerned about them to start with but I've given the one on my Sport a good thrashin and its been fine. It slips a bit side to side if I try and chuck my 14st at a framewhip but I shouldn't have greased the fooker when I put it in  ::)

never had the bars move though  :)

cheers lads

got it all stripped down and doing a clean and rebuild now - nothing major on the resto front - just a clean survivor  :angel:

Got a Haro padded seat off of Norty40 and new tyres & grips - swapped the bars and thats your lot.

I know they aren't the best bike in the world but there isn't another complete with decals about that I can find 8)
