Scored this free from a  mate and scavenged through parts and made my self a ten speed for riding around the local lake, just need some higher rise bars but it rolls along very nicely for a 30+ year old era bike. The gears shift nicely the cotter pins are tight and i can ride no hands!

Been swapping a few bits and pieces, only thing I have bought has been the ergo grips, everything else given for free or for doing a job on a bike or from the scrap pile.  Front forks are a tiny bit bent but will do until i find some.  Silly me gave a nice chrome set of forks away recently.
Araya rims, Bontrager seat, suntour deraillers, shimano brakes, pure black grips, alloy cranks and a lot of fun.
It now owes me 15 dollars for the grips.
Got to do something while I save for BMX stuff.
If I really get into it I might even paint it once I have straight forks on it.

Cheers Tim

Hey Tim, I picked up a perfect set of forks for this today. They are in perfect cond just a little surface rust.
They are Tange road forks with Suntour roadie dropouts. Top notch stuff.
I'll stick em in with the Haro. I'll get you a pic later. I'm off to go-karting!!

Got the 28 inch wheels for it, think we are going to clean it up and sell it to raise money for the men's shed.
Got the rear coaster and 2 front wheels funky steel thingies.
