So Im getting a new bike

[that_guy]

I snapped my current frame and the pieces on it are crappy, so Im getting a new bike I want to get the haro mirra pro or flair since they both come with cassete LHD and I grind on the right side plus the parts are not total pieces of crap, what do you think seeing Im only going to spend around $350 (my parents are paying)

dont get a garo you would be buying a bike for its name not its quality get a fly barcelona

Fly Bikes! Pre bent, so you don't have to.

[CMcMahon]

Aside from the brakes, or mayeb a sprocket, I can't imagine paying for a Fly frame. I've seen at least a half dozen of them end up with cracks at the welds or a bent rear triangle.

DAMN IT, and here I thought I had a decent bike with my used diablo frame, ****. Oh well, back to your discussion now, sorry.

Is that like the new Rock Shox that have the adjuster to control how much oil leaks out?

garo...you mean Haro....and Haros are becoming really nice...wait they were always nice...cassette hubs, seald wheels, 4130 and all the other good stuff....plus the Fly Barcelona is just a frame....so then he would be paying $350ish for a frame when his whole budget is $350...

[CMcMahon]

The Fly Barcelona was a complete, but Fly doesn't produce it anymore; it was never available as a frame only.

garo...you mean Haro...

Maybe he means garo, from a guy in Tijuana. You know, the guy that sells Bolex or Rilex watches...

it's probably a typo or whatever seeing that the h is next to the g on the keyboard

my bad, i got it mixed up with the Spanish Fly...




does Fly still make the flatland complete bike?

well i put the barcelona up for a test and i droped it of a 25 foot high wall and all that happened was little dent and some scrathes

[CMcMahon]

Sure. And dropping a bike straight down off a roof isn't going to cause the same impact as falling while moving forwards at fifteen miles per hour after dropping three or four feet with a 150-pound rider on it.
