I don't think I've ever posted a pic of this bike, I was showing it to Ed today then realised I've never put it on here.

Anyway here is my bike, a Haro Zippo 1997, which is slowly turning into a pack of opal fruits. I got the frame, forks and bars off Spen, the rummaged around and found wheels, tyres, grips and a seat. Just whatever spares I had lying around. It ended up a bit multi coloured.

So, the big question, long term it needs a repaint, so do I keep the colour scheme as it is, or do it all blue and white?

Leave it and enjoy

After looking at Ed's clown, I think it might need blue tyres.

I've decided to go with yellow and black, but the biggest thing to decide on is yellow or black tuffs?

stevepeanut · « **Reply #16 on:** August 08, 2015, 04:13 PM »

I sold the Orange tuffs and red primo tyres and bought some black tuffs and black tyres. Looks a lot better. I can't decide yet whether to have black seat and grips, or whether to leave those as they are.

Looks much better with the black tuffs, id match them with black seat n grips but your call

Thats awesome news steve, Wil have to sit and have a beer with you both, seems like an eternity since the hereford ride of days gone by

I'd love to get back down to Hereford for a ride out, that one was the first one we ever did. Its just so close to our yearly isle of man TT holiday, so very hard to get to. It'll be good to have a catch up.
