Haro Gen 1 with a twist
« on: April 07, 2012, 08:02 PM »
Bought this the other month off Ian  :daumenhoch: (Oldschoolib)  when i got  it   ,  came with black alloy Tuffs , Haro Vector bars but i've got another project for them  ;) as you'll see soon , it was powder coated black but to be honest like some blacks it just didn't shine good enough so i flatted it down and resprayed it in a 2K black along with the CW Freestyle bars then baked them in my low bake spray booth  , The decals have had a little tweek as the writing is now chrome instead of white and the green is a little brighter .
the only NOS parts i've used are the green Z rims and Suzue hubs , green ACS brake blocks , Hatta head set , Sugino opc ,









 A couple of pics with the flash showing the Tunderbolt cables  :smitten:


 And one pic for the guys missing the famous Rad  ;D

 Once i've  finished the next Haro i'll take a pic of them together ,,,,,,, if it's not raining  ::)
          Cheers for looking ,   Kappy

makes a refreshing change over the 'done to death' bob haro replica's, and it works well...

get some shorter bolts in that stem though....   ;)
