I've been riding for real since last july. Haro has been around since 1972 and has more experience than specialized. Everyone likes the p1,p2,p3 but the Thread 1 is just as good as far as performance. The parts that a Thread 1 has when you buy it stock are not as good as the p1, but I built my custom.
Yeah, that rbk I got about 3 years ago I just got into riding last summer and saved up to build that Haro Thread 1. I'm getting a new chain and front rim for it. My Haro thread 1 isn't a "Pos". It's 29lbs and is really a nice ride.
