1982 Eddie Fiola was sponsored by Bob Haro and the Torker low profile frame was a popular frame to use for flatland and ramp riding. This was an incredible day at the Skate City bowls as Eddie debuted the opposite one hander one footer and lookback one hander aerials! The winning bike looking simple featured some rare components:
* Bottema Skate park reinforced forks
* Redline non-pinch flight cranks
* Skyway Graphite Tuff II's with Campagnolo first generation hubs
* Mitsuboshi Competition III Yellow label tires

* Bob Hadley sealed bottom bracket in Gold
* MAX seat cover

Eddie left HARO soon after this to start MORALES/FIOLA (MF) and the Torker was redesigned into the HARO Freestyler late 1982.
