But I'm way too lazy to take my bike apart and paint it haha.

Get a new frame and it'd be a good bike.

Bikes: GHP, Eastern, Haro, Skyway

1985 Haro Sport, one of FIVE made

1985 Haro Sport

1985 Haro Sport in PINK - survivor that's all original, not a restoration. Original pink color, one of five made, as per Bob Haro. Very possibly the rarest Haro known to exist. Absolutely in NOS condition.

The Peregrine 48s on this bike (dated 1-86) are indeed original with it, as are the tires, which are Mitsuboshi Comp Stadium.

Incomplete, but just about done with the Redline MF140 Micro Mini rebuild. Still need to get grips, ends, pedals and chain and run the brake. This thing is going to be scary light, glad my youngest is under 50 lbs.

Do not have a scale at home, but when I get the pedals and brakes on, I will let you know and post completed build pics. It will be sub 20 for sure, just not sure by how much.

The bike used to belong to another forum member, whose son raced it years ago in Colorado. He gave it to me to rebuild for my son.
