Pros
Good specs for the price (Deore drivetrain, FSA cranks, Hayes mech brakes, Marz fork). Built like a tank. Adjustable travel setting from 5 to 6 inches. Built for agressive trail riding.
Cons
X-Fusion shock has very little adjustment and stiffened up after use. Mazocchi fork has no noticable adjustment but worked very well. Kinda heavy at 35lbs stock.
Review
Good entry level bike with decent parts. I changed the fork to Rock Shox Reba team, changed rear shock to a Manitou 3way and put lighter more cross country type tires on. After riding this bike for the last 3-4 years I have a lot of confidence in Haro bikes. Have not had any problems with the frame at all.
