Got this off C-list. 88 Haro Sport. Chrome is practically mint. Paint / stickers need a touch up. It's a trip down memory lane for sure.

After a couple years of borrowing friends' bikes and fantasizing of owning my own, I'm finally taking a dive into BMX at the seemingly (to me) strange starting age of 20. I've been riding road bikes for years and am simply looking for more fun (more blood)!!!

Frame: Simple Enigma 21"
Fork: Shadow Creeper, not sure which version
Headset: FSA Impact
Stem: Fit down low
Bars: Shadow Conspiracy, unknown model
Cranks: Profile
Sprocket: 24t Animal V2
BB: Unknown
Seat/Post: Animal seat rigged up/welded to a handmade post
Back wheel: Demolition Anorexia laced to Demolition Zero surrounded by a fat heavy Maxxis M Tread
Front wheel: Demolition Bulimia laced to Demolition Zero surrounded by a Shadow Undertaker
Pedals: Animal Hamilton plastics
Grips: Worn to nothing Fit.
Animal pegs at the moment.

I plan on replacing the seat/post, pegs and tires sooner than later to start trying to save some weight.

Fun stuff!

Thanks. You are on a waiting list of about five other people who want it. As of today, I have to adjust the headset, dial in the brakes and it is done.

The bike looks nice man.

I should be getting a good Haro frame from a friend because he finally got his Tierra in. I'm going to be painting it dark purple, and building that up. Sub 5 pound frames ftw.

my bike looks very blue in these photos, probably becuase of the camera phone, but it is a dark flat purple. You said you are going to be painting a haro frame right? which one? my last bike I had was a 2005 Haro Nyquist Pro. I replaced quite a bit as I went, but I never changed the frame. People hated on it big time, but that frame held up to everything I ever did to it. Wasnt a huge fan of the ISIS bottom bracket though. lol probably spent around 1500$ on it total and sold it for 26$ last week. Post some pics when you finish it.



The old Haro

Fit TRL3
Changed up the pedals because Fit pedals are ****ing poo, Hamiltons kick ass!
Pretty new Season sprocket because 25/9 is for ******* and 28/9 is just fast enough to feel safe riding along in traffic.
