Who has there 80's freestyle bike parked next to there 3wheeler?

[Iprefer3]

Just curious if anyone still has there's. I had a haro master that I worked all summer long for back in 88. I can't believe how hard it is to find the old 80's bikes. Anyway if any of you have one you want to get rid of. I'm having a 1/4 life crisis lol. Post up some pics if you have any.

[hang&rattle]

I had a (87') Haro also. It was the gray and red one. Smooth bike. Also had a cool Schwinn pit bike. Both gone now. But Onnie has a pretty rad Schwinn decked out and a cool Made in America Mongoose. Tasha has a cool pinkish-purple Mongoose freestyle bike.

[SWIGIN]

Mines not parked next to my trike but I do still have my Hutch Trick Star frame.

[cattle-dog]

didnt do much free style but raced bmx for takara and still have my factory sponsered 20 in which is a 1978 or 79 model

[hoosierlogger]

I had a Haro. It might still be in the shed at mom and dads house. That is if dad didnt haul it off for scrap. Even if it is in there it probably is all rusted up and not worth anything.

[Ironbnder]

I never could afford a Haro and that was my dream bike! I use to go to the Freestyle shop and look at them. I do still have my Valtera skateboard with Action 2 trucks and Slimeball wheels in the shop hanging from the rafters. I have not rode it in 25 years, but I still have it!

[leviblue]

The SE line-up is hanging above... A Perry Kramer PK Rripper, basher,quadangle,om flyer 86 and 2010, moosegoose, an ET kewi, Stu Thompson pro redline, and a Harry Leary diamond back. I had an old Toby Henderson Hutch but someone liked it more than me, so much so they took the pole/sign it was locked to. Their my babies and I love to show'em off to the neighborhood kids and piss my buddys off when they see them. I know a guy who knows a guy whos got alot of 80's bikes and he's been parting with them slowly. GT's ..Mongooses ..Dyno's.. Race Inc... Torker....CW and such... I'll get a list for ya if you want

[playasridebmx]

i have a saint tropez frame hangin im my shop right next to my roadmaster(? schwinn lookalike ) lowrider... saint tropez was given to me a while back

[jensenracing77]

i had an 87 Haro FST and saved my money for a master. when i had enough for the master it was 89 and i hated the bash guard under the front sprocket so i ordered a leftover 88 Master. i got it with no wheels and ordered a set of Peregrine Super Pros. last year i was looking on eBay at the old 80s freestyle bikes and found out they were selling for a fortune. i put mine on eBay and went for over $800. i think i have some pictures of some of my flatland freestyle from back in the day. i will look for some and post them.

[jensenracing77]

my old 88 Haro Master

levi, you want to sell the PK ripper? my buddy had one back in the day and would like to find another.

[ChrisD]

I still have mine....it's a 1986 Kuwahara Bravo KT. It cost me $350 in 1986. I actually just got the last parts to resore it to like new. I now have the exact tires that came on the bike (they were white flatland tires, not black like this pic) NOS decals that I had to get from a guy in France, NOS pedals, white grips, brake pads, etc. I just need to get it to the powder coater and match the color. It's almost done.

Here is a pic from a couple years ago.....and yes, sort of. It hangs from the ceiling above my threewheelers.

Yup that's the one except mine was called turqoise and mint in color. They had a redline RL 20 ii and a master and I had them pull them both out of the boxes so I could see them both and decided on the haro.

Yes they are going for huge money on evil bay. I also had a haro fst first before I got my master. That's funny. Mine was bright orange (fst).

[ChrisD]

Thanks man. I plan to make it correct, which is why its taken me years to get it together. I still need a NOS Kuwahara seat. There is a Bravo KT on ebay now that is missing parts, has the wrong stickers on it, wrong tires, aftermarket seat, wrong pedals, etc that is over $350. A mint one sold on ebay for over $650, certainly not as much as others out there, but it all depends on what you're looking for. I, personally, won't sell mine. Just like my R, I will never sell it.

[leviblue]

Eric I like you and all and your a great guy but never!!!!! But SE made a special ed in 2009-2010. Dans comp does have one or two still. I know there's a white/red one at D&Q in cherryhill NJ on the showroom floor. Low price of $1200.... not bad considering the vintage is $1500 beat to $2500 perfect, Same bike with the drop-outs and such. I think theres one on philly CL might be a flyer though 24in. Check out SE's web site their located in Philly. I've only sold the mini ripper and I want it back but I gotta wait a year till the little guy grows.

[jensenracing77]

turquoise and mint is what color my FST was. i wanted the same thing with my Master but i ordered it in late 89 and had to choose from what was still available. i remember at the time they said they had a pink one that i almost went with. i never seen a pink one.

lol, i didn't figure you would.

[riverrat]

I had a Ross snapper, rode the crap out of that bike. We had a club called BMX mud riders, we took old army jackets and painted our logo on the back. Most of my friends had mag scramblers.

*and oh yea, I modified it with a longer stroke crank, smaller front sprocket, and heavy duty spoke rims. It was stolen from my friends house one day, and like a week later I saw a bunch of older kids with it, and it was just leaning against a garage. I went up to them scared out of my mind and asked, does this belong to anyone? They said no, so I said well it's mine I'm taking it back. They said sure, and off I rode.

Aeromaster is it?

not 100% on exactly what it is looks alot like the old stingray frame but the necktube is longer than the stingray and the back is slightly teardropped and has the tabs that stick up for the banana seat

[rdlsz24]

I had a Dyno VFR, my brother had a Haro. I remember also having a turqoise Mongoose when were were younger with the white 5-spoke wheels. It was a heavy bike

[jensenracing77]

i can't remember the exact details but i think the pink one was an older leftover. i don't think it was an 88. i most likely would have gotten it if it was an 88. i wanted something that was not a normal color.

[code200k]

had a chromoly mongoose frame that i got for free on junk day.thing was mint.Sold it for 100 bucks.

[Iprefer3]

I know one of you guys has a bike to sell me or knows where one is....lol Why do I get these things in my system and then they dig in like an Alabama tic haha. Oh we'll one will pop up eventually it just sucks waiting. Oh by the way 2 strokes rule lol

Ok bro....nice bike though. I had a fst before the master. I can remember wizzing down the sidewalks in my hometown. That was fun

[Mosh]

I had 2 Mongoose Californians.

One I rode the snot out of till I cracked the frame. The other I rode for along time and sold it for a guitar.
Wish I would have kept one of them. They were in this shape and identical to this pic.

I hear ya mosh....the cycle pro that I had and the haro master were both stolen....but the master wasn't stolen until after I sold it to the kid across the street for $180 I think.....so I could go buy my first dirt bike a TS185. I borrowed the bike again from the kid across the street and took it to another friends house and that's where it was stolen from. (ouch)

Well I just have too many bikes at the moment and am gonna sell my 1987 Haro FSX.

This is a great survivor 1987 Haro FSX Freestyler! I have only ridden it a few times and is in great condition but has normal wear/scratches for a 20+ year old bike and I did recently fall on it and scratched the handle bars a bit. The only thing it would need is to have the brakes adjusted, it's a great bike but I really want something newer and am going to get a new "retro" haro freestyler. I am selling this for exactly what I paid for it so I'm not trying to make any money here I just want something newer.

$500 shipped

I have one 80's bike left.

[Jason Hall]

This Is the bike I had (well not this one, but one just like It). I think I got It In 1982-1983. My mom bought It for me brand new. I put 3 piece cranks on It, a Tuff neck, Graphite X pedals, Skyway Tuff 2 wheels, a laid back seat post and a tall set of Skyway handlebars. Man I want another one. If someone has one let me know. I want a chrome frame In good shape!

[NOSBIGSHOT]

My Mongoose had ashtabula cranks forks and gooseneck. Kick back (coaster)brakes , snowflake metal wheels . V-bars a rubber seat and pedals that cut shoes in half .The grips were so hard I still have marks on both thumbs from blisters . I think the bike had to weigh 70 pounds .

Well, thanks to this thread, you guys and peer pressure, my love for BMX's and my boy recently getting a Diamondback Joker from his G-ma....

I have now got back in the game. I picked up a 2000 ish Dyno on the CHEAP that needs some TLC. I spent the last 2 days tearing it down and refreshing it. It is not what I wanted, but for the price I could not pass it up to see if I want to ride full time again, then move on to something better.
I will get some pics as I get it complete. Man. It's true. Once you learn how to ride one you never forget.

Back when I was young I remember parts being expensive. SHIAT.. Compared to Atv's this stuff is cheap, now that I have a job. I remember tires costing like 8 dollars and saying "man, where am I going to get 8 WHOLE dollars"
LMAO

[Mosh]

WOW! Thread stopper I guess.LMAO
250 Roger..MAN Nice bikes!

Anyway I said I would post pics. I know they are not 80's, but getting back into them, it is a start.

His will be in good shape probably if he hangs onto it..lol.
