dont get one stick with the original gen 1. Its just some big company toying with your nostalgic feelings.Why buy a copy its not even like Bob Haro owns it anymore.
for the limited numbers of the new gen one, i doubt they will make that much, thinking about it.

Haro have listened to their customers are fulfilling our request - they are not trying to replace the Gen 1 (nothing can), they are just honoring it's place in BMX history. I'm all for it.All companies, regardless of size, are in business to make money - but Haro can do that by producing mainstream BMX's and Mountain bikes...they are doing this one for the love of it and to not forget the people who put them where they are today.Jeff, I do understand your cynical thoughts, but I do think Haro's heart is in the right place on this one. Daveoh ok
Jeff - what have you got against Haro mate?

I love the way that the positivness of this thread has been knocked at every turn. seriously, checking up on what I said? fook. I am I liar? I guess to some I am. I have nothing to gain at all by any of this so why would I bullshit? A large majority moaned like fook when the Haro Retro Sport came out so I took them moans & your opinons & used it towards making this new Gen1 a better bike than the Sport. Full cromo you say? Right. Crappy components you said? Right. all the moans, criticism's etc were noted & taken on board & the bike is coming along well. But it seems that it'll never be right for some people. I still cant believe that someone would make the effort to "phone a friend" to double check my claim. My very good friend is the BMX Brand Manager @ Haro, he rode for them BITD & has worked there & been friends with Bob for years so why on earth would he bullshit me either? I guess he's just a liar.I think i will also call him later to ask why on earth a large company would tell an email enquirer to "piss off", thats strange.I could go on forever but I wont, pointless.Thanks for the time on the site Bill, its a great place but I dont think I'll be back.

I only checked your claim when you said (Bob has more say than I know ) All I did was get some info off a friend who worked for Haro just like you . Why get all upset because somebody's not a fan of what Haro are doing these days?.
