Sorry - looks like it is just a standard new school flat land bike, not a retro model...booo hissss!
Title: Re: 2006 Sport
Post by: WizardWeb on September 18, 2005, 05:57 PM
They never stopped making bikes called "Master" sometimes it's just called m7 or whatever.

Someone should make a top of the range new school bike called 'Pro Tour' and a retro one called 'Senior Tour'......
Title: Re: 2006 Sport
Post by: Stodgy on September 19, 2005, 03:11 PM
Just found some more pics!

They've added Haro Knee Saver bars, Multi-surface tyres and A'me grips for added 'old school'...looking good in black as well...

Oh I wish they were going to arrive with Kneesavers. But the kit in the advert photo and the description indicates the same spec as the Mirra 540.

If I owned that black one in the pictures though, I'd be so happy. That's how a freestyle bike should look..... 8)

Absolutely WizardWeb! The bike shop these pics were from added the old school bits...it look's the nuts, eh?! Haro could learn a thing or two...  ;)

Title: Re: 2006 Sport
Post by: WizardWeb on September 19, 2005, 09:02 PM
Skinwalls look better than blackwalls and kneesavers look better than 2-piece bars. I prefer a taller bike too. That way you're not hunched over like Quasimodo.  ;)

I'd add that fancy new Odyssey stem though. Then it'd truly look the nuts !

I've seen a picture of the Turquoise Sport and I have to say I don't like it at all. I'd rather have a black one, or better still an electric blue one.
Title: Re: 2006 Sport
Post by: WizardWeb on September 20, 2005, 07:42 PM
yeah, the black one is better. The black blue combo was good too but was the 87 with Sport written in yellow, or the 88 with Sport written in silver better?  :)

Mint / teal was more of a Master colour combo. But I still like it.  :)

So hopefully we can start to please you all out there ( i will be working hard to do that ) . So if any one wants 1 let me know or i will put a post out nearer the time they are here and one when they are in shop .  ;D

Winstanleys are getting them in then well it must be true if they say so  LMAO.

Sorry mate good luck with your job I think your gonna need it I wouldnt believe anything winstanleys say.

Moore and Large seem to be not sure about getting them but Im sure winstanleys are more in the know that the uk Haro importers.

Sorry to sound a cynic but they really are shady

Good luck for monday and tell your boss Andy Mcnulty says a big FECK U!

tbh, whenever i've gone to winstanleys in the flesh there has never been a problem.

seems to be the mail-order side where things are all wrong.

its a bit hard saying somethings in stock when it isn't when you're stood there!

Yes it is Stodgy as i am after one of these more than any one . And i will ride it all the time as my old school haro masters take to much work in upgrading and then brake , bend and flex on my and also now a bit to short . Have a look at them under haro in the museum  8)

Just heard back from Moore Large & Co (the UK Haro distributor). They have confirmed that the Sport 88 will be available from March 2006, but a price has not yet been set for the UK.

I'm trying to see if RadBMX members can get a bulk buy rate direct from them, so if any of you guys are interested, let me know and I'll get a potential list together. NB They have not yet agreed to this, but I'm hoping the numbers might be able to secure a deal.

it leftside drive [for if you grind on the right].

think the haro's come with a "normal" freewheel so you can switch it over if you want. [they used to!]

Post by: OTB on November 12, 2005, 12:41 AM
Haro Europe is locate in Paris.... i've contacted them in june to buy a 2005 one. They ignored that HARO make a sport replica. They have contacted HARO USA to have a 2005 for me but it were no longer aviable. they told me that HARO will make a 2006 one in turquoise and proposed me to order one. I've said yes so now i will be the first to have one in Europe.

To order one contact them by this way:
info@harobikes-europe.com

Tell them that you contact me before (stéphane sandre is my name)... they know me and we have very frendly relationship...

Contact them quick cause they told me they will have a few quantity of this BMX.

P.S: sorry for my english... i haven't practice for a long time.
