1985 Haro Master

1985 Haro Master with lots of new and NOS parts.

I always loved the twin tube Haro Freestylers. Because I always wanted to get a Redline flight crank and some Skway graphite tuffs I decided to let this childhood dream come true. New double pitch flight cranks are pretty cheap and new graphite tuffs too. As I had enough trouble with used tuffs and used cranks and bearings I selected the "new" ones. I added a new chain ring, new power disc, new FIS pedals (old school ?), new chain, Tuf Neck stem (very good polished) with hollow bolt, Tange lock nut, CW bar with new stickers, Oakley F1 grips, Dia Compe Tech 4 break levers, MX fake breaks with Weinman adjusters, Skyway Tuff break pads (new edition), new GT Layback and an Elina Lightning saddle (NOS). At the moment I´m waiting for four 4" long "3/8" 24TPI screws to screw my black Skyway axle pegs (have to be drilled out) into the hollow axles of the graphite tuffs.

I always love Masters, have fun on it! Don't have to always match, the grips are great. I am thinking of putting a RED # plate on my GREEN Haro just because it's the only plate I have out of the package.

I like this grips, they are soft and only a few years ago I bought three sets of them NOS. I still have one set grips left and I hope that I will find a lovely Skyway TA for those .
When I was young I could only afford the bad and hard imitation of the Oakley F1 grips maybe this is the reason I prefer them now (original).
