BMXmuseum.com Bikes / Haro / 1988 Haro Team Sport

Here is my Haro Team Sport, built up over the last 6 months. It started with the F/F purchased from Umby-guy, while looking for an RL-22 and then I set out to accumulate the rest of the parts. I've owned the original Chrome Master BITD, but this is my first ever Sport. The bars came to me from some idiot on the bay who mis-represented their condition! So, I sent them to Chip at C4 to have the black lower portion re-powdered along with the seat post. I picked up the Haro Team stem from Protrax and had chip redo the top plate. I kept the lower as is, but will likely take it off during the winter and polish it up! I picked up the repo Haro team disk (made by extremevert) from canadascott and the re-chromed single pinch 401 flight cranks from ebay. My buddy Gunluva gave me the sealed bearing BB & spindle and I had Chip powder the clean GT pedals in the same Haro blue as the stem top. Picked up the front Nippon (which I scratched) and NOS Tech 5 levers from Ebay. The NOS Blue lower Gyro was picked up here along with a NOS blue upper that wasn't long enough (hence the mixed gyro cable colors). The polished Peregrine SP Clamp was purchased from Sport and the Peregrine decals for the hubs and clamp were the product of UltraHive (Amazing work!). The wheels themselves were picked up on Ebay ($32 complete!) and were in piss poor condition, but I put some serious elbow grease into them and the finished product came out great. I sanded the side walls down and polished them along with the hubs (by hand using Cape Cod). I also replaced all of the original spoke nipples with black ano nipples for a nice contrast against the silver UKAI rims. I couldn't find the correct era type Haro tires, so for now it's making due with the newer school Haro HP tires. I'm not crazy about the white walls, but they go well with the white in the decals and they roll real nice! I'm hoping to get some black Haro Pegs at some point too. Also, I have a chrome Izumi chain, but like the way the new school chain looks. I had help in choosing a colored chain from StillInTheGame and I think it matches well. NOS Dominator seat was picked up here as well (sorry I can't remember who). All in all, she turned out great and rides like a dream!
