After a few months gather dust, I finally sourced a couple of minor parts (Haro power disk and 1/2 Grafight-X pedals) needed to complete my custom Sport.

Built with an old school vibe, my penultimate freestyle build ever!  :D

Woah, my first look at this thread, i like the pink wheels, goes good with the frame and decals. There's just a little too much pink trim for me though, mabye ditch the seat and grips..?
10/10 for perseverance though mate.  :4_17_5:

Didn't all our bikes BITD? In fact I can't remember owning a matching set of wheels, tyres or grips for that matter!

looks better with the small changes, not keen on the race bars though. freestyle kneesavers would make it pretty much perfect looking, i like bikes with pink parts, my first resto was a skyway ta in white with pink parts, i remember buying a pink dia-compe mx1000 brakeset from vert-ego for £45 and thinking fook me he's doubled the price from what they were bitd.  ;D here's a pic of my old ta.

and riding it.

The white plastic washers are in the wrong place on the flip up fork standers.  :daumenhoch:

Looking great though Chris.  :4_17_5:

I did spot that, and considering what I can do with photoshop it would have taken me 5 minutes to edit for the photo but I left it to see who would point it out  ;)

They're the right way around now though.

What are the bars?


Haro race bars, normally found on a 88 Group 1 RS-1.  I do have the "right" bars for this Sport but they're on an 88 Team Sport and i'd rather keep them on that.
