New Dominquez Haro Sport ...

[griff]

yep as pickle says why 19.5 as still too short and you might as well ride a original as they were only 18 inch if your using it for a ride around as you wouldn`t use one of them for new skool as your be banging your knees .
pointless and another cash in on old skool bmx

I thought the original Sport was longer?

I like the look of these new reproduction Haro's. But I would build in reproduction parts. 

[bigfatolly]

I like it.
A-It hasn't got brake lugs
B-It looks oldschool
C- It's blingy chrome.

The best oldschool reissue so far in my opinion was the Anniversary Goose but I think this tops it.
Would be tempted but I have just got an FST project ,very tempted on the Vector style bars as well.....

Still undecided Ant,  spoke to the guys today and just milling it over at the moment £500 needs a bit of respect before it goes on yet another ornament or part of one to be accurate

If you get it .. Go for it in a big way !! Put some great NOs parts on it and put it in the MK15 show and shine in the retro section... Could be a real lush build mate !

no 18 inch i think like most frames back then ie trickstar`s so on . i think it was only the redline rl20 II that was 19 inch back in the day
i check on mine what length it is when can get to it

must admit i always thought the sport was a little but longer than the Master 

[Tel-boy75]

The Sport was longer than the master:

The Sport frameset: The Sport utilizes most of the Master's proven features. 4130 chromoly tubing, precision machined bottom bracket shell and head tube, identical forks, dropouts, and reinforcing gusset. The Sport's wheelbase is longer (36" -37") for improved tracking and stability at higher speeds. (Steering is not as quick as the Master.) The Sport features a unique two into one top tube design that provides a slightly shorter platform area than the Master.

Rich Sigur, www.notfreestylin.com: The 4130 chromoly frame (a big deal back then) was great for what it was designed for: small ramp and flatland. But my style of riding was primarily ramps and skateparks, so the early Master did not suit me so well. The shorter wheelbase was not as stable in the air. I discovered this fact one afternoon while practicing on my back yard quarter pipe. "Oh @#$! it hurts" is what I remember most about that bike. A week later I politely brought Bob his bike back and told him, "Sorry bro, I cant ride this bike anymore, hurts too much." That's not to say that the bike wasn't good it just wasn't for me. Other riders had success with it on vert including Eddie Fiola, and Mike Dominguez. Bob Haro designed the Sport frame for me because I wanted something longer, than the Master for riding skateparks and wood ramps, which was my area of experience at the time. I actually didn't get involved with flatland until my first tour in 1984. Bob suggested I learn some flatland because I didn't have enough tricks to last an entire show.

very tempted on the Vector style bars as well.....

I seem to remember reading that the new Vector/Haro bars have a slightly larger diameter 'stem' shaft, and apparently won't fit old school forks

The bars on the completes have a slightly larger diameter, but the ones being sold separately apparently are OS size (Stodgy had a pair for sale recently)
All the new ones have some differences to the OG ones though
