Now that's a nice bike.  Need a drool icon for that one.  I rolled a first gen Haro with Campy Graphites way back.  Removed the rear hub and bolted in a coaster.  Every time I see one of those I remember the first go on it thinking "I'm on a REAL freestyle bike now".

Note to self - must join the long queue of people wanting a Gen1.

Love the build - I managed to bring bits in from the garage yesterday whilst the missus was at the shops and finally build the mini - pics will be put on tonight.

Incidentally Billy are the bar ends plastic push in Grab Ons? If so I have some red ones that are on a bike that I don't need you can have them if you want.

It`s not the seat guts the wrong way round, but for some reason I used a layback seatpost then slid the seat right down it  :idiot2: I was going to do it to this one too, but the seat guts have a tab to stop you sliding it forward so it stayed where it was  :daumenhoch:

Edit: just looked at it again and your right Daz they are the wrong way round:
