Bob Haro "grip tape"
« on: January 05, 2014, 04:04 PM »
toying with the idea of putting some on my homage to bob freestyler.
what can I use ?
I know it was scotch m3 or summit originally and I know you can't get this anymore so what is the next best thing that will look authentic enough? :daumenhoch:

help please?
cheers Ant

Got some 2" wide tape off ebay & was loads better
WANTED : 1" freestyle forks, uglier the better
