BMXmuseum.com Bikes / Haro / 1987 Haro Team Master

Hello everyone!!

Quick story...  bought a Haro Master off of CL back a few months ago...  Original Black/Coral.  When I got it, I was planning on stripping it down, and building an 87 Team Master.  I didn't get much good feedback on doing this.  Everyone wanted me to keep it original...  which now I understand why a little bit more.

So, Chromey had mentioned that the Black/Coral Master is one of his Holy Grail bikes...  so a couple months later, I PM Chromey, and ask if he would be interested in a trade for a nice clean, stripped Master...  well, he just happened to have one.  Let the trade begin!! 

I sent Chromey my Master, and he was super awesome and saved me the time/money by sending the frame right to Chip, to get the powder done for me.  Chip was really cool to wait for me to ship some other parts to him, and ship it all back together.  This is really what this site is about.  Good people, helping each other out!

The 87 Haro Team Master has been my favorite bike by far since I was about 10 years old.  A friend of mine had one...  well, he was about 7 years older than me, and was totally my BMX idol.  He had an 8-9 foot halfpipe in his back yard, and basically his own parking lot at his house, and we all went out to his house to watch him and his friends get some air, and do some flatland.  He was the one out of his group of friends that wasn't a jack a$ to me and my friends.  You know, they made us sweep the lot before they rode, wipe down there bikes, get them sodas, and all that stuff.  He always stuck up for us, and always invited us out to his place.  He would even give us quarters, when he would see us at the "Ice Creame Shoppe", so we could play Super Mario Bros. 

Anyway, I always looked up to him, and he rode this bike...  so I needed one...  now I finally have it...

You will notice that it isn't perfect, era correct, NOS, or any of that jazz...  this is my interpretation of the bike.  I am absolutely stoked, and I had to show it off even though I still have a couple things left to do.

Thanks to Chromey, and Chip for making this happen for me...  this IS my Holiest of all Holy Grails!  Thank you guys!
