It’s this time of year that the road trips really start to get going.

We've never really done a Bike Test here at FATBMX but when the HARO 500.1 arrived, we decided to have a couple of people ride it to see what they thought about it. Building up a bike is so easy these days and the HARO was no different. The most time was spent on the brake cable setting up the centre pull brake. If you ride brakeless you can remove the brake and the brake mounts and don't have to deal with that part either. It's basically adjusting the seat height and the bar position and putting some more pressure in the tires and you're ready to go.
