Haro Master....Old V New
« on: October 28, 2005, 06:54 PM »
Finally, after 20 years, I got round to doing up my master.
The only new parts are the Brakes, seat and tyres. All the rest are from bitd.......oh and the stickers.

I think I might even prefer the New, which is unusual for me, but it works really well.  Nice!

I like the old for looks Sean, but I know the new rides better  ;)
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
 Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
 Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
 Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'

Damn right Billy.... :). The DX pedals have been in daily use for 20 years.... I took them of the Master and used them on my mountain bike. Only swapped them back just recently.. ;D

Andy & Dango.....Blahhhhhhhh.
I'm taking geth with me tomorrow, shame you cant go.
Steve...are you going??

Looking back at the photo , It cant be 85' cos I've got a flight crank on it which i bought when I started work in 86'.
The nice thing about that build is that it's 80/90% original and not NOS.
Makes you feel warm and fuzzy looking at....well it does to me. Maybe not you lot.... ;D

KuSam..... That was no "signature jobbie". That was me on my painted mirra. Looks the same but was a 1/4 of the price.

That's why we should all have name tags. It makes it easier to go up and talk to folks. who was motomag?

Motomag was the guy in denim and glasses who wasn't riding due to rib injury.  Yeah, name tags would be good...although, having said that.....having to ask someone who they were meant you actually got talking to them anyway  ;D
