Don't know if this type of thread already exists but..
Here's some Freestyle/BMX bike/parts catalogs i want to share. Hopefully someone else out there wants to share too. I personally would love to see Peregrine and/or Ozone bike catalogs if there was one.
These catalogs are hosted by filefront.com and should be no problem downloading them. However, please report if they're not working for some reason.
Let's start off with some Haro catalogs from 1989 to 1994 and few others.

> Peregrine parts 1987 (could be '88 too)

> Haro 1989

> Haro 1990

> Haro 1991

> Haro 1992

> Haro 1993

> Haro 1994

> Dyno 1990

> GT 1990

> Bully Bikes / Hammer Bodyguards 1991

Enjoy

Timo!

Thanks bunch Bro. Very cool Stuff.

Devon

This thread is cool. there's a couple of catalogs at AJK's site for download (87 gt and a couple others)

Yes, the catalogs at AJK are awesome!

i have some 90s gt catalogs, but no scanner.....

Thanks for posting those, some of them I've never seen.

Now does anyone have a General catalog? I'd love to see one of those.

I see these uploads all the time - how do they work??

I click on the LINK then I click on "download now" - then I get advertisments, then I get a long list of files with no names - just generic titles.....

Help?

Devon

Awesome....Thanks!

Cool - Thanks!

Looks like you helped someone else too!

Stephen

Blimey ! I'd forgotten about some of these horrors, By around 93 Haro's started to look really cheap....The race bikes had looked cheap since 89 though IMO. Thankfully the Master didn't look bargain basement until the '93 catalog when it gained that scaffolding pole of a downtube.

Thanks for uploading those, it's filled in a few gaps.

Thanks for sharing Timo.
I put the link to this topic here http://www.23mag.com/dl/dll.htm
Other magazines, books or catalogs ? Anybody ?

Buisson, i still have a 1992 GT catalog yet to be scanned, bunch of mid-90s catalogs and a hard cover book by Dave Spurdens (an english publication) called "BMX Freestyle" from 1984 where practically everyone's riding Skyway T.A.'s and just ripping!! Lots of cool pictures and bikes, 1st gen Haro Freestylers, PK Rippers, Torkers etc. Ramp plans and how to's.
I'm sure some english old schoolers could ID the riders, because there's no name credits anywhere in the book not even on the pictures. I'll try to get scanning it real soon but it will be a lot of work..

Still have some Freestylin's and Plus's to share once i have them converted into more reasonable file size.

The Dave Spurdens book is yet scanned. I'll put it back online soon.
If you can upload your large files, I'll reduce them for you, I've got a nice software which make this operation easy.

Here's the Spurdens book : http://files.filefront.com/spurdens_bmx_vi...;/fileinfo.html
Merci OTB pour l'upload.

Catalog Dyno 1986.



http://www.23mag.com/dl/dll.htm

lets bump this up. Anyone with General Stuff?

Excellent! Thanks for the 86 Dyno cat!

I have that Spurdens book...got it via Troll book orders in elementary school.

Haro catalog from february 1988 issue of BMX Plus!

http://files.filefront.com/Haro_catalog198...;/fileinfo.html

Cool. I remember spending ages looking at that catalog, just praying I'd get enough money for a Team Master or Team Sport. Sadly I never did....

Any way You can post the 90 GT,and Dyno Catalogs. I also would like the Peregrine catalog if possible Thank's,Rich.

The links on the start ot the page don't work.

Yeah, I don't get it. All the links just bring me to filefront.com's homepage and all it shows is video game stuff. Where's the catalogs???

That Dave Spurdens book must have been one of the most well-distributed freestyle books of all time. I ordered it through Troll book orders in 1985, and had no idea that it was an English book until this last year. To this day, I still haven't mastered that stupid "star" rolling trick.

Hey y'all, yeah the links on the front page are dead because filefront.com removed all my stuff pretty soon after i uploaded them into their server. I try getting those catalogs up again soon somewhere else but it's alot of work uploading them all over again cause their big files.

However, a member here named "Buissonrouge" has most of those same catalogs (and more) up in his website, you might want to ask him.
Thanks.

Cool, I'll look there. I know Buissonrouge has some whole magazines and stuff posted.

Ok here's what we'll do, i'll put the catalog up again in small groups. I have now these 3 catalogs up in my homepage and they will be available for a week, starting now, and then i'll move on to next ones because the available space is limited to 50mb.
Here we go:

Bully/Hammer 1991 catalog
Dyno 1991 catalog
GT 1990 catalog

Is it Josh White at Woodward ?

I'd say Joe Jonhson if i remember right.

Yup, absolutely Joe Johnson at KOV Woodward.

thanks for this post and the links to find the catalogs

got to add this to internet favs

thanks

i got that 1990 gt on a powerpoint so i can read it easier...i first though resized the pics to 50 percent the size then put two pics per slide. id give a download, but PP made it 80mb+

anyway i have a question on the 90 catalog.....were there actually 990 mts on the production PFTs? the double bolt clamp is different from what is on those bikes, so thats why i ask. the problem with gt catalogs is they always have pics of slightly different prototypes of production models.

Hey 2fresh, When You going to post different catalogs?
Thank's,Rich.

Thanks for the info about Joe Johnson on the GT catalog.

"New" additions, second time around though. Will keep these available again for a week and then move on to my last set of scanned catalogs.

Haro 1989
Haro 1990
Haro 1991
Haro 1992
Haro 1993

Thanks.

2fresh Do You have the 89,or 90 Dyno Catalogs, or any GT after 90? Also been looking for any Raleigh catalogs. I need pics of My US made Raleigh 2500. If anyone has pics of one please email Me at richinchico@sbcglobal.net
Thank's,Rich.

2Fresh What's up? I am very thankfull for Your catalog posts,but You told us a week. It's been around 3 weeks. Where's the new stuff? Hook it up!
I'm dying over here.

Rich, just like the EPMD song: "you gots to chill". Uploading these catalogs is part of the hobby, not a full time job (unfortunately).

GT/Dyno 1992 (32 pages)
Haro 1994 (12 pages)
Mongoose 1991 (16 pages)
Schwinn 1991 (6 pages)
Peregrine 1987-88 (8 pages)
Redline 1991 (8 pages)

Now it's your or someone else's turn to share something.

-Timo

What happend? All the links are dead!

Try now:

Peregrine 1987
Redline 1991
Schwinn 1991
Mongoose 1991
Redline 1992
Schwinn 1992
Haro 1994

Thanks 2FRESH.
Who's on the cover of the 1987 Peregrine catalog ?

I would think it is "Coverage" Mike Loveridge, but I'm not 100% sure.

I'd say too that's Mike Loveridge.

Hey 2fresh,I just replaced My drive. The old one crashed on Me. I lost all the catalogs You posted. Can You repost them,or email them to Me Please? My email is richinchico@sbcglobal.net
Thank's,Rich.

Anybody have a 83/84 Redline Catalog?

I'm looking to rebuild my 500a to exact specs and need a little help in the component category.

Thanks

PJD

Bump....

Say Timo, can you fresh your links to these catalogues...they all appear to be broken now. Either that or drop them on an ftp or something zipped up as one file so i can snag them? This is a pretty useful resource....but i don't think there's one place online to grab them right now.

Also....anybody have any additions?

Keith

why dont the mods make this a sticky so it serves a purpose as sort of a reference library with permanant links? there is always someone trying to find a catalog someplace and comes up short.

Do you still the 89 haro catalog? If so can you send it to me at sgarn@ncwcom.net. Thanks a bunch.
