That one in the picture is a copy ::) so watch what you are buying if you go for a Gen 1 Haro :daumenhoch:
Paul :coolsmiley:

gen 1's never come up for sale now, i bought the last one off ebay, and that was last may, soon you will be doing a striaght swap for that porsche :LolLolLolLol:
-
Ive got an original chrome f+f, bars and flights built with NOS parts. :smitten:
(http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/s213/munners1975/Claremun158.jpg)
I believe that the GEN 1 is the only bike currently that would break the 2k mark purely because they are rare as fook to source at the moment. And that is in todays market!
-
I'd say nearer to £1600 depending on spec
that's with no snide parts
but if your talking OS Skyway graphites and snakebellys then yes well through £2K

I bought a NOS 1983 Candy blue Quad f+f with unstamped LG's recently for £500 posted.
I dont think your loopy would be attractive to someone as a complete bike at the moment. Not saying it isnt nice cos i think it is :smitten: but i just dont think the money is about. I would say £450. :-\ for the f+f. ;)
-
Loopy quads will still get good money
if you offered it to me at 500 quid for frame and forks, i would buy it
a lot rarer than reynolds ones , however seeing as prices are falling rapido , i would say that will fall by a fair ammount in the next 6 months

you can't compare a 83 non looptail with a looptail,completely different frame and a lot more rare,there is lots of 83 onwards quads about but try and find a looptail,rare :daumenhoch:
its that usual story,how bad does someone want something,if they want it bad enough they will pay :-\
-
I would have thought that you can name you price on the Looptail Quad ;) Rarer than rocking horse crap :shocked: I have only ever seen 1 for sale on ebay.com and that went for almost £1500 ish about 18months ago :shocked: :shocked: :shocked:
If you offered it for £500 you would have a stampede in the right circles . I would defo put it on ebay and watch it shoot up when the market gets better as now is not the time to sell anything , Haro Gen 1's are common in comparison to the looptail quad ::)

2 loopy quad frame and forks ( older cycle pro forks as well ) hVE BEEN BOUGHT FOR 700 QUID and that was a few months ago, so looking at the prices dropping in the last couple of months then 500 seems about right
however 2 people with cash is all it needs to shoot the price up

I travelled to Romford about 5 months ago to look at a Gen 1 a bloke was selling on the bay. All i had to do was hand over £400 there and then and it was mine. It had the wrong forks and i decided that i wouldnt pay that much. I tried to knock him down and he had none of it and he ended up getting just under £400 on the bay after letting the auction run. I kind of regret it now. :'(
