$100.00 | | Purchased At: | garage sale | | Strengths: | my Haro SX is a strong bike. I ride it hard everyday. it hasnt let me down in a long time. | | Weaknesses: | When i got this bike the teeth on the sproket where worn down in some places. The stock tires where worn out completely and the stock brakes where broke. | | Similar Products Used: | My other bike is a Haro F3. It is a 2008 bike and the SX I think might be a 2003. But dont know for sure. | | Bike Setup: | On the F3 I only replaced the tires chain and brake pads. the SX got new tires brakes and sproket. | | Bottom Line: | Both bikes are really good. But if you are lokking to buy a race bike save our money and buy a better Haro just make sure its a Haro | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$378.00 | | Purchased At: | Bike Dr. (Special Order) | | Strengths: | Strong 7005 Aluminum Alloy Frame, solid trail tires (good for dirt tracks). Stock is still rock solid, yet still light. | | Weaknesses: | Stock drive system is a bit touchy, my sprocket rounded off at the spindle and I skinned my knees several times, so I replaced it with an FBM Race 44t Sprocket, PoVerty 180mm Chrome Euro crankset, with a 3/4 spindle. SRAM Alloy 8 speed chain. And my favorite part, custom gold spike schraeder (spelling?) valve caps. | | Similar Products Used: | My first 20" was a 2000 Nyquist Edition Haro Backtrail X2 (2 Haro's? I'm seeing a pattern here...) It has lasted me 5 years and still stands strong and proud, I'm bout to sell it to a friend in my band. | | Bike Setup: | 20" Rims, stock stuff, the goods lol... | | Bottom Line: | This bike is a solid racebike, it got me 2nd place in my class for Maryland State Champion, though I recommend highly replacing the drive system soon after you get the bike. It will only run you about $200, I was like $198ish. I don't plan on getting rid of this bike anytime soon. A good buy for $350. It's light and quick and I recomment a 44:15 gear ratio, if you race, you know what I mean when I say it shoots you out of the gate. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$375.00 | | Purchased At: | Local shop | | Strengths: | Nice bike, everything on it is good as it comes from the dealer. | | Weaknesses: | After 1 month: - pedals, chain, tires, fork, crank system, ... | | Similar Products Used: | Haro SX pro, Redline pro | | Bike Setup: | extra grip tires, new fork, other pedals, chains, brakes, cut the bars down 3/4 on each side! | | Bottom Line: | At first, I was stocked when my new bike arrived. But what I noticed that the bars are really, really large. I cut them 3/4 on each side the first day. After 1 week my crank stystem broke. The front tirer is way to large. Bad grips, i placed lizard grips on it. Chain broke 2 times.
The point is, 375 $ isn't much money for a bmx bike, and it is race ready when you buy it. But i you race a lot like me, don't buy this bike, spent a bit more money and buy something GOOD! It isn't a bad bike, i recommend it for beginners but for better riders, get something better. | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
