Post by: jonpaul11 on November 11, 2005, 09:11 PM: Rom Bloke - that bike looks amazing! (what's it ride like? ;) )

Can I ask - why the all black back tyre - you based the build on something I'm missing?

jon
Title: Re: which Haro?
Post by: Rombloke on November 11, 2005, 09:20 PM: my bike is my attempt at a replica of bob haros own ride, the black tyre is how he ran it ...snake belly front and a raleigh red dot rear....this pic is obviously pre gen one when he was still riding a proper torker, but like this....see

Title: Re: which Haro?
Post by: jonpaul11 on November 11, 2005, 09:40 PM: can I ask what new school ride your on now - I've tried a couple, but not felt quite comftable yet... I bought a Schwinn X something (alloy race thing which I liked until it was stolen) around 94 then a hoffman flash which I really didn't like around 99... was looking to get back on the street/dirt, but would like to know what old schoolers find are the best ride...
