Wow, seeing this bike made my jaw drop. :smitten: Very different, loving the XTR cranks, something different to seeing the DXR's all the time.

:) Looks good,whose is it? And have Haro started using proper sized seatposts yet?
-
Derek Becher's (i think thats his name lol) Haro's factory rider and I know what you mean by the funny sized posts ::) ::) ::)
-
What is up with that seat post clamp? Almost as big as the seat.

Looks like a quick release clamp, the side we can see in the pic is the lever. ;)

Can't see the point of putting XTR cranks on it, Fine for a race spec mountain bike but they'd flex too much for a BMX. DXR cranks are 100% stiffer for a good reason. :daumenhoch:

yes the haro pro and xl frames now take a 27.2 seat post so you can use tompson seat posts at last. this is also the new 2010 factory test frame he is using. as you can see no integral chain tensioners any more

Think im gonna get myself a DB44 :smitten: :smitten:
-
:) The 09 DB 44s seem OK,not sure about the AC cranks,pretty flexy.Sure they could have stretched to a casette hub & cromo bars for that price...
-
Seem a pretty good bike to me, having no cassette doesnt bother me, i've only stuck to two gearing ratio's which is 43/16 and 44/16 so thats all good to me and the bars would probably be changed in time knowing me lol
-
stunning ride and id have no problem plumping out for one...if it was pro size and not xl :-\

the reason they did not put a cassette hub on. is that like most things the bike is built to a price point . the ac cranks are ok but you have to remember most riders would upgrade cranks and wheels at a later date :daumenhoch:
frame geometry on race frames changes for 2010 and an pro xxl frame option will also be available
