Wow, your story is a direct mirror of my life although the ending days were a little different. I did have the support of my parents as they shipped me off the Woodward PA in 1989 for 2 weeks to really hone my skills. Me and my Master rode with some of the best in the business at the time. I got back and my skills took off. Fast forward 2 years and stupid me leaves my bike on my front porch. I woke up to my father yelling that the front door was broken. I run down and sure enough...my 88 Team Master is GONE! I never got back on a bike until 2006 when I bought a Master M7. I only rode for about a year and a half but that was it, I just couldn't get back into it at that point. Life, work, etc... Dude, beautiful bike you have there, the memories are flooding back. Enjoy it!!
Congrats bro , love it , I still have my 90 master , and I was lucky enough to get #216 dmc master , back when it came out , it's funny how Bmx never leaves you , even with , responsibilities , house , crazy cars , wife , I still love Bmx just as much now , as back in 88 , my masters hang proudly in my office , and I will never sell them , keep it rad bro !
Haven’t ridden a bike of any kind in decades. I am 43 now and somehow/someway I found out about this 2018 Haro Master. I remember wanting one so bad in 1988. I’m fighting the urge to order one right now.
Stop fighting it. I bought a Haro Group 1 today. I'm 40. One of the best decisions I've made in life. I've missed my bike since middle school. I'm getting the Haro Master 26inch asap. th-cam.com/video/ef5pGlg0HiQ/w-d-xo.html
John, keep the reissues coming. To celebrate the 4th of July, just ordered my first ever Haro Master frame from flatland fuel…. Thanks for the throwback buying opportunities! Congrats to Rad Richie, killer ride with the Tuffs!
Not long after watching this video, i got myself a master. There a really lovely bike like you say. They look beautiful in the flesh , really well made with attention to detail. Absolutely love it !
I wish Haro do a master series using the styling of the Mirra 540 air but with modern metals, angles, bottom brackets, chain stay lengths and head tubes
hey radical richy I got a 88 coral master......u look rad w that's Jersy. the teams loved wearing those suits in the early 80s around 87-88 Dennis McCoy was wearing his in 86.
Sux i got back into bike again back in very late 2020 since my hiatus from 2012. I missed all these lineage bikes and gt pro performer heritages but i have a 2009 haro freestyler fully customized. Your bike is gorgeous btw. Im in love with it. I also have those glasses in black.
Gorgeous. I had the same exact bike back in the 80’s. Question. I called the flat land guys you recommended but they said they won’t install skaywsys in it. Did they did this for you ? Or you got them separate from someone else ? Thank you.
by the way ,,, peregrine used high flange joytec hubs and araya rims.just a side note,,, Bob haro sold the company in 93. I probably know this but just sayin

Gorgeous Ride!!! The white Tuffs and the Turquoise / Teal paint just go together and scream 1980's HARO Master.

Fork standers would look good on there.
We're all going back to the future on our 🚲 🚲's
Awesome bike, and love the story in the intro, LOL. Does the chain hit the rear brakes? It looks close.
A great way to spend $1500. Sick bike! A classic!
The most beautiful bike I've ever seen.. looks great with the white Skyways
Awsome bike brother, I'm a subscriber now
Love it. Looking forward to seeing you session on it. Thinking about getting one myself.
I'll be waiting 4 that throwback O.G. vid bro. I just put mine together and everyone just loves it. Color combo off the hinges..!!!
lovely bike mate well down
Rad Richie.. im in chicago too... are you selling the super 48s?
Yeahhhh boyyy!!! Looks great!! I’m a fan of the tuffs. I have my 88 vintage frame/fork reissue on order. Those Supra 2s really do work on mags.
Haro Jersey! Nice!

Going out today!
How come nobody ever mentions Bob just stole the torker ?
what size are those grips? Looks good btw
No uploads anymore are you still alive ?
Would be willing to sell the 48s they came with... Curious
Is there a way to tell what number that bike is? I know they only made 350 of them and i bought one from someone but i dont know what number it is.
Do you still have the stock wheel set?
YES dammit you look cool!!
But only with the glasses on...
Sorry to say it, but that is a complete bastardization of a Haro Master
