(1/5) > >>

Hi Guys,

Apologise if this has already been posted, but I searched and couldn't find anything.

I've just found out that Haro are remaking a Modern Gen 1 Master. See pics -





Wondered if anyone knows if they'll be available in the UK? And where I can get my hands on one? :)

Sorry guys, I couldn't find them :idiot2:

Please can you post me the links to the threads - and I'll delete this one.

Swivel:
Unfortunately it looks like poo, but with a load of part changes it "may" be ok?  ???

Stodgy:
LOL - this has been a subject of discussion for about 20 months now. You're opening a can of worms in terms of opinions on this one.

I used to support all things Haro, believing that they were really trying to build a decent modern retro of their classics specifically aimed at the riders who supported them over the years (i.e. they produce them just for the love of it).

But, alas, this parts bin, non-listening, no effort POS deserves to stay on the shelf. It is horrible. They clearly haven't thought about their market, nor have they been bothered to listen to the pages and pages of suggestions and input from this forum and Vintage.

At least SE have got their retro bikes right by listening and having good knowledge of their history (albeit some colour combos are a little off - Todd!). FFS even Mongoose had a great stab at it with their nice little retro-goose!

Haro on the other hand run ads showing an 82 Freestyler saying it's a 78 with the strapline 'Know your History'.

This bike is wrong. But this is mainly caused by the parts-bin raiding attitude they have taken towards it. They could have changed just three simple things to make it better - the seat, the chainring and the tyres. It's easy.

I think the Stodge just said it all....
