Title: Anyone remember the shop that was selling NOS haro Masters Complete for 200
Post by: ftobmx on March 20, 2006, 09:44 PM

I think it was about 5-6 yrs ago now, I bought 5 Complete Haro Masters (3 white 2 Green) from a shop for 200 each.
I saw the advertisement in Ride Magazine and couldn't beleive it, they were actually reduced from 250 to 200.
they came with the 3pc sugino /redline cranks, forklifter stem, kneesavers.
I sold the four on to guys in the states and kept one, wish I kept the lot now :LolLolLolLol: for the life of me cannot remember the name of the shop, doubt they still got any, biagio is selling the crank for more than the bikes now

Coopers used to flog em fairly cheap too.

They still have a few frame and fork sets i think.


I have a nasty feeling that the badlanders and CC Pro Lites are all in the big skip in the sky now :(

Talked about this before.  Seeing fully built up trickstars in OT's and Streetbeats in bikecity, in Bromley around early to mid 90's going for next to nothing.  I guess most of us hadn't quite caught the old school bug to justify spending £200 on an old BMX back then lol :(

I just paid nearly that just for the F&F :'(  wish I had seen that offer when it was out!

But hey, I didn;t have the cash all those years ago and you can;t miss what you didn't have...can you?
