Guys a lot of you know that I just delivered a project for Haro to recreate the original Haro Freestyler frame and fork. I am about to push the button on a microsite dedicated to the project and allowing you guys to register interest in buying one of the 300 frames we had made. Keep checking back at www.harobmxhistory.com in the next 24 hours abd it should be live. Everything you need to know about the project is on the site.
In the mean time, we had an evening event with the riders and team past and present at Inter Bike in Vegas last week to celebrate the 30 year anniversary of the Haro Freestyler. Vital BMX covered the event, heres some shots from an awesome evening...

I reckon they'll look good based on what I've seen so far, only the price puts me off (but I think they'll sell without too much trouble)
The repro freestyles look mint

Awesome work Dom and really pleased Jay got a frame too :4_17_5: you deserve everything that comes from this, onwards and upwards mate :daumenhoch:
P.S. Wack my name down for one of these please ;)

Yes
Only Paul harorider knows :angel:
-
What's the script with the serial numbers? Are they just going to follow on from where they left off? Or will they have 2012 stamped on them?
:)
-
Lovely but how much?
-
They have a unique serial system although located in the right hand dropout. 300 have been produced, I was fitting decals on Monday before I flew home. They come in a nice presentation box with a foam insert and with my own screened decals (artworked fromn original set)and a DVD showing the manufacturing process. They are $995 each full cromo and produced in Santa Ana, California.

you must be loaded! ::)

Ive been waiting all day for this chuffin site to go live!! AAAHHHH
So... how will this be classified.. is it a 'real' Haro Freestyler, or a repro, or a remake or what? Loves it whichever
I have my 2nd Gen1 in 30 years, for 3 weeks now and take my eyes off it!!
-
that is a stunning piece of work Dom !
-
Thanks gents :)
Not long now. I just dropped a mail in for progress so Ill update shortly. The micro site address is www.harobmxhistory.com
At the moment it diverts to the generic site but should be live soon
Will update
Cheers
Dom

"must be loaded" well, actually, um, NO. I do work in saudi but ive spent much money on a big daddy resto and building a 2012 condor. I wanted the skyway TA remake but that was 5 years ago after the 1st production run. Coloredtuffs said they would make more of the frames but never did. I always wanted a Haro and maybe now I can get 1 to ride and 1 to keep unbuilt and offload the big daddy as spares to go toward the build. I may even sell the condor even though that set me back around £1200.
Im not rich but it is payday tomorrow.

Saw one these today... tis a nice thing for sure...

-
i want one :smitten: :coolsmiley: they look so good ;)
-
have done the math and can just about afford it :smitten:
just hope I'm gonna be one of the lucky ones ;)
great work dom :4_17_5:
guess the streetbeat project will have to go on hold for aa few months :10_2_12:
I keep checkin but I'm guessing the site will go live based on the west coast time zone of the states ?
am I thinking along the right lines dom ?
-
Just thought i'd mention a few things on the frameset, It is based on the original Mark 1 freestyler, for anyone who does not know, this frame had the gap underneath the headtube gusset as did the original framesets, also the geometry is based on the Mark 1 aswell with the slacker head angle, basically its the 30 year old version, Sweet!

-
Im going silently mental!! been updating this website for more than 24 hours, now its on AND I STILL CANT CHUFFIN BUY ONE!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!
-
Good stuff.... :daumenhoch:
-
They look awesome Dom, you have clearly put an immense amount of time and effort into this project and it shows. These will fly out the door and quite rightly so.
Well done to you and anyone who gets one. It is indeed a well deserved 'doff of the cap' to Jay for receiving one too, top marks mate. :daumenhoch:

It's gone live dudes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:
check it out now..........................
its says first come first served...a mailing list is to come on the site soon !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great site by the way Dom :4_17_5:
-
I guess (after the serial code) this will hence be known as the "Anniversary Freestyler" :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:
Hey Dom how about getting Bob to sign those gorgeous anniversary boxes ? That would be the icing on the cake !!! ;)
Tried to get some more information and so turned to the dark side (bmxmuseum)...so many crazy rumours... all 300 sold out already... one going to each of the top 300 Haro dealers in the states .... not for sale until Christmas ?????
i'm guessing these are all nonesense ??
According to Dom's offficial site serial numbers 1-10 will be sold at auction for charity......Great idea Dom :smitten:
Am I the only Radster getting really excited here ? :D :D :D :D
-
Dom, this genuinely is one of the most awesome and credible projects to have happened in the old school scene. Well done boyo ;)

This is a great an exciting project, just wish I knew how I could order one!!

Thanks guys, it was a yet of pure indulgence. Haro have been great, they understand us now. Joe hawk now thinks like a collector, the microfiber cloth was all his doing. Watch out for more to come, im writing a book for them too.
-
Make sure it has a word search, I like them.
