right ready to get shot down but i don`t like it , the front gusset look cheap and poorly done and what with the brace on the backend and rear dropouts .
oh well each to there own but i rather have the sport anyday for looks

Yes I agree about the front gusset, it looks crap, but I syill quite like the frame.

Is it gonna be available as a frameset as well, or only as a complete bike? Don't fancy spending a ton of cash on a complete bike, as I'd rather choose the parts myself.

I've been informed that they will be selling the frameset alone.

Can I re-sticker mine as a torker and run yellow tuffs?

There's one thing wrong with that reissue , the flat plate on the top of the seat post tube to twin top tubes .
Remember They all used to crack on the weld round the seat post tube because of the flex caused by the weight put on the bottom bracket pulling the seat post tube through the plate .
Unlike the 1991 master and up used an ovel tube type plate with welds top and bottom of the seat post tube , defo was a stronger design ! Don't ya all think ?
Hope that someone at haro has put this into consideration as many frame's could fail .
Also what are the dimmensions of the frame ? TT etc ?
Anyway look forward to it coming out , would like one myself ....

Price list annouced in the US (ripped from the other site):

Looks like $395, so around Â£250 - Â£300...not quite as high-end as we expected (which isn't a bad thing as we'll all change the parts anyhow!)

othomas2 · « **Reply #111 on:** October 06, 2006, 06:34 PM »

Cheers for that piece of info... I know what to save up now.

Apparently only 200 are going to be released in the uk.

Stodgy · « **Reply #112 on:** October 09, 2006, 10:27 AM »

Just noticed at the bottom of the price list...Premium Completes...interesting...

You'll probably find that if it's $395, it'll end up being £395 (I'd put money on it)

Maybe, but the 06 Haro Sport 88 was listed at $395 and came over here for £250...so, fingers crossed!

the 06' sport was tri-moly with 2nd rate components. the general view of this bike was full 4130 & better components so it will be more than the sport was/is

So, why is it the same list price as the Sport was in the US?

DJ · « **Reply #117 on:** October 09, 2006, 03:04 PM »

fook nose? I'm just preparing you all for if it is more expensive, which I imagine it would be? but I could be wrong?

also, keith at coopers cycles down here (portsmouth) said he would take orders now for a small deposit if anyones interested? 02392 386666

I dont think his website has been updated in a while but www.cooperscycles.co.uk

Zippy · « **Reply #118 on:** October 09, 2006, 03:15 PM »

I'll be ordering mine from Wolfybmx when he does them. He was giving everyone a great price on the Sports this year. I'll wait until i see one in the flesh first though just in case.

Stodgy · « **Reply #119 on:** October 09, 2006, 03:21 PM »

Any more news on the specs DJ? Also, I see on the other site that the 990 mounts are moving to the seat stays...IMO, they should stay where they are on the chainstays...much better performance and looks nicer (so long as it doesn't interfere with the gearing options). Also, 21" TT please!!!

Nice one.

DJ · « **Reply #120 on:** October 09, 2006, 07:13 PM »

Yeah Stodgy, the lugs are now staying on chainstays, smaller lugs too, should be ok to run right down to 25t?

21inch too long
