Both are nice! What kind of tricks do you do with the Haro Master? I mean with a back brake only? Intersting...

Thanks DaddyCool!

Oh, the Haro is not something I ride any more. I did for the first few months when I finally got back into riding again though. The front brake (old, white Diacompe Nippon) was off at the time of that picture. I had put it on my son's 18" bike (no 990's). It's currently installed again and back to hanging on my wall collecting dust. I go through moments where I think about selling it to somebody that might want an old relic to cherrypick on! I believe I bought it in '91 and it may have been a prototype (though it has a serial# so maybe not). Been so long I don't recall. Bought off a dude in socal (San Diego..where I grew up) that used to ride for Haro.

Very nice Colony Timmer74. You're in the modern era with a 19+ frame and 9" bars!

oh man, that's insane looking Bryan! I love the invisible chain too. I'd be too afraid to ride it and scratch it up...

Thanks Metal! I'm really digging this bike.

Yeah I couldn't get the chain to work with my gear ratio/dropouts (bike companies can't design) so I have to switch sprockets and try the chain again
