I think it's all about opinion's. I like Haro's. But that's just me. I don't know if it's a good bike or not, but I always wanted a Dave Mirra bike. So, I have one now, and I'm not complaining. The only "bad" thing I can think of is the brakes. I'm gonna get new pads and see if that changes anything. But, I usually dont use 'em anyways.

Do you have chrome plated Rims on there? If not those really help with braking....Also learn how to configure your wires to work their best...That helps too

THey're not chrome plated. So, I'm just gonna get new pads. I didn't see the pads when they were new, so I don't know how much is worn off. But they do look really thin.

Pads shouldnt matter TOO much....It would help a LITTLE but getting chrome plated rims would be your best choice if you have the money.....You could easily get used ones from friends and from some stores....I'm getting some from a friend for 80$ soon...

I just moved to this town so I don't have much for friends yet. There is a bike shop in town that sells Haro stuff, but it's mostly Mt. Bike crap. They have a Shredder and a couple racing bikes in there, but nothing special. And they are overpriced. The closest "quality" bike store is 20 miles. I usually go once a month. Sometimes more, sometimes less.
