retro line?

[DJ]

Just a thought here BUT do you guys think it would be worth Haro releasing some old school products again but as with new school strength? Like cd's but under 36t that are thicker or maybe 25.4 twin seat clamps, group1 clamp-on stems etc.... You get my drift? I'm not asking for product suggestions (yet) just general opinion....
thanks

[Stodgy]

Maybe, just don't go too naff with them. I quite like the theme you have already established; i.e. old school style frame with new school bits.

When you're ready for product suggestions, just let the floodgates open!!! Official old school repro sticker sets wouldn't be a bad idea though.

 

[DJ]

OK, what I was thinkin was new school parts that look like the originals? That way a new school ride or even a retro ride can be customised in a more old school looking way whilst maintaining the strength & quality of new school design/materials etc....

[Stodgy]

I got what you meant DJ - like I said, just don't go too naff with them if you do. Personally, I like the old school style frames with the new school style parts.

I just mentioned the repro old school decals as an aside - cause the Haro collectors really want them!

 

[DJ]

I have quite a few in my "collection", white, green & chrome master, blue, white sport, red fst's.... should be getting more soon too!

Cranks, defo some Group 1 style box cranks, they would be good 

Number plates a maybe, skinwall/amber/white wall tyres would also be rad 

[Stodgy]

Yeah, that's a point DJ...how come you can buy Haro Multisurface 4 Whitewall tyres in the states/canada but not over here?

[rom_kid_04]

go for it

[OTB]

Very good idea i think... new OS bar, tires... (and why not T-shirt  ...)

[Stace]

Clothing could be cool!

[christhejob]

proper kneesavers deej..
the videos are in an envelope, repeat, the videos are in an envelope.........................................

[DJ]

Ok "jobster"...... errrrr.... the half of the mag money has been drunk in the form of mr daniels!! i owe you big!

[WizardWeb]

I like the idea of the t-shirts. or retro uniforms or are we getting too pervy now? ! 

But parts yeah, that'd be cool, I can see that working. Not sure how big a production run you'd need to do to make it worthwhile though. 

I'd quite like some Freestyler stickers that would fit my '03 mirra flair.....

[Obbie]

Yeah DJ , put me down for a 30T Haro Fusion Disc and a 25.4 twin seat clamp .
And was it us talkin the other night that made you think of this ? Hope so ? It would be so cool as i had to put a smaller sprocket on an lose me fusion disc coz a was bending it all the time and f**t it right up .

[DJ]

"obbie" I'd thought about it for a while but seeing your 06 with the CD etc made me really think more about it.

Yeah, i was thinkin of tee's too.....

gotta get this f**kin Gen1 one thing right 1st though!

[Stodgy]

Here ya go DJ - further inspiration...my 06 Sport with retro parts:






Built to match the original 88 bike:

[stuntmaster]

that looks nice .
what about kneesavers as everyone rode them and great bars and haro fusion disk were cool but then do they still use the fusion name

[Obbie]

Nuff Said.....
