Re: 2009 Haro Freestyler

From white.... to black....  :D

I hate grungy white tires and grips, so I made a few changes before putting it back on the street....

Awesome work, once again, Jeff! I'm getting the urge to build another retro. If only Knight would do a Prostyler!

I made the decals myself... and had a local print shop print them on clear vinyl for me.  Unfortunately, I didn't have them print any extras.

Re: 2009 Haro Freestyler

this bike rocks. looks totally ridable and practical. if factories would have stopped designing new models from an aesthetic point of view in 87, and only concentrate on furthering what they already had to improve riding efficiency, according to what tricks were done at the moment, I'm pretty sure it would have been something like this. great work!
