Haro group 1 opinions?

[oldtired]

just had a look Chuddy's  Group1 RS2 in the tech section , i was thinking about one for the OS , noticed a few of the guys at bradford group 1  RS3's i think , i think these are still available at Allens ,  what's the diference between 1,2,and 3, also seem to  be odd angles , how do they ride, obviously thats down to your own set up but you opinion would be appreciated,  i think if they've stil get em there 80 quid for F&F seems resonable to me ?

The RS1 has a 20.25" TT but rides like a 19.5" due to the BB being in the same place which cause the odd angle for the seat tube!!

So it should ride exactly the same.

The RS3 is tri-moly so its not full cro-mo!!

The Higher end RS1 and RS2 are full cro-mo.

A few riders race them and seem to like them!!   I liked mine and still have it!! 

Get yourself to Lytham and have a go on one!!

cheers for that moley , i tried to get over to bradford , problem is work commitments , always work saturday , so realisticly im looking at next season, that way i can clear up the dates in advance and try to get to all the races ,    nice info on the RS3 , there listed as full cromo, got enough parts to build just need F&F, no rush so i think i'll bung a shout in the wanted section , see what's about

Saturdays?   Race days are Sunday's!! 

You dont need a Silver Membership for Winter Series so that would save you a few quid!!

You just turn up and pay your entrance fee!!

Try and make the next dates and meet the lads!!

And if you want a roll around the track then do a Novice Race!!

I have a Haro Group One F+F. 20.5" TT (with the BB being the correct distance away too).  So far better geometry than the RS1-3.

Creamy and Daletsunami and myself have raced it!!



I would accept £80 for it.  It cost me about a £100+ from the US.

If your interested then LMK.   You can build it up and try it out before you buy!

It has other Haro and fusion stuff on it.  Seat, bars, Group One Stem, Haro Cranks and seat post.   Although it would cost you more if you bought all the parts too.

If you live nearby or we can meet up then all you'd need to try it is some wheels, chain and brakes.

No pressure, if your not happy then you dont have to purchase.   You could even race it a Lytham.   Just bring the  wheels, chain and brakes and we'll build it up on the day!!

i rode my rs2 at Bradestan on sunday and it felt ok to ride,saying that i havent ridden any other os race bikes so i cant compare it.
if your tall go for a longer frame for more knee room!

Just had my maiden voyage on my rs2 around coppul tonight at gate practice, http://

loved it, handled smooth, responsive, fairly balanced ride, just need some gas and air to get beyond the first berm http://

from memory the rs1 and rs2 are the same the rs1 came as a full build and the rs2 f&f only, im sure ive got a download copy of a haro brochure mentioning this.

go for it, well worth it for an old school ride for us oldies http://
