What is the difference between the Team and the regular model? Other then the extra decals on bars and team/frame decals, I like it! I got 2005 and 2006 models. Can anyone help post my pics? It will be sometime till I am able to post some.

here's BMX Joe's 05 and 06 Sports. Nice rides.

2005 I got on ebay last month f/f and built it with extra parts that I had laying around/new school projects that I took apart. Ended up looking like Ron Wilkerson Sport BITD.

2006 was a Christmas gift this past year from my wife. I ended up changing and upgrading it with different parts.

I can't wait till they make the 2007 model ( Haro Master frame) I'm already collecting parts for that project!

As soon as weather gets better and a little more practice, I'll have some action shots of me on the vert quarters at the skatepark near hear.

I love the Retro stuff!

Dude !

I honestly dont know which one I like better over the other...I love em both - yeah !!!

I just saw an '06 in a bike shop yesterday. They wanted $389 for it. Is that going price?

I really like the 05 sports. I think that why i'm gonna do My 95 master in the Black/chrome theme. the 06 looks great with the kneesavers on it.
I really hope they do a good job of the 07 master when it comes out.
1niceharo
joe--- did you have to change your cables for the kneesavers? the original cables look small. what chrome rims do you have?

bmxjoe--- there isnt a "team model" so to speak. both bikes are the same i just decaled it up as one.

rl-20ii guy yes 375 is actually about right talk them down if you can. shops ive talked to say they can't get rid of the bikes fast enough
RL-20II Guy
Yeah, the guy said that the regular "kids" just think it is another haro bike for the present year.

They had it hanging up by the rear wheel right in front of the door way, so it hits you in the face as you walk in.....

There's a shop in Northwest CT that has a blowout on ALL current BMX bikes- 20% off- so after tax etc. you can walk out the door with the 2006 Sport for $340.

Starting price is $399.
RL-20II Guy
Not a bad deal, concidering a new school bike with 3pcs carnks are more than that...

Then again, also, back in the day, that bike with 3pcs cranks was more too....

Stephen

2niceharos--I used the same cable that comes with the bike. It is a real tight fit as you can see. I like it this way because cable is not over the cross bar.
As for rims I'm using my last set of Peregrine Super Pros. I changed the rear hub to a Nankai freecoaster and also changed my chainwheel to run 33/12 gearing.

Good job on adding those decals to your Sport!
The head tube one on yours looks alot better then the ones that come stock on the bike.
tread
Nice bikes guys!
PJandHAROs
nice work on that sport Lee definitely looks better, don't ride it w/ that seat though.

91 master taking the bars from the 05 and throwing them on that 04 was exactly what I was thinking some one should do, nice bikes
91Master
those aren't my bikes. I just posted them for BMX Joe.
I wouldn't mind a 05 though.
VENOMSZ
There is a 06 sport sitting at my LBS for over a month now. Alot of ooh's and ahh's, but no buyers.
It's on sale even! $359.
DansHaros
I've heard they are Very nice riders!
604 Rider
the retro sports sell for less than the regular bikes like the backtrail or mirra pro. strange IMO
speed
The Retro Sport is Tri-moly,the Mirra and Niquist Pro are Full chromo-ly.That's why they're cheaper.Also the reason why I can't decide to get one,because the 05-06 Sport weighs a ton!
speed
Hey Venomsz,where in H-town are you? Are you talking about the one in Sun and Ski? I saw it and even sat on it,it felt odd,to say the least(then again,I'm used to old school rides and BMX racers)
1niceharo
yeah this sport isnt going to be a ramp rider thats for sure. i left the pegs off it because they weight about 3 pounds each, plus the 35 pound weight of the bike now would be like riding a tank. now i know why new school parts are all drilled out or made of aluminum
bmx joe
Frame weight is about 6.5 lbs. With upgraded parts you can the complete bike to weigh about 30-31lbs. The ones in the pics that 91Master posted for me is around 30-31lbs. But if your a weight weeny you can minus pegs, add 36 spoke rims,lighter bars, new odyssey stem, set post, and take off the front brake, maybe add some titanium axles+spindle.
you can shave off maybe 2-3lbs. Only thing that would look Retro is frame and fork.
604 Rider
well i figure a limited ed bike should cost more.

most new school bikes weigh about 30-35 lbs anyways.

EDIT BTW: the cranks are HEAVY. thats why i got a set of RL Flight II off RL20 II Guy
