Join us at Sea Otter!

Going to Sea Otter this year? Be sure to stop by the Haro booth located right across from the Kenda booth on Sponsor Row! We’ll have a full fleet of demo bikes, some of our 2010 bikes on display, as well as a sneak peek of some of our 2011 bikes.



Haro pro slopestyle riders riders Greg Watts, Phil Sundbaum, Eric Porter, and Brian Miller will all be there to compete in the Sea Otter Dual Stunt competition. Dual Stunt is a unique competition that combines the speed and excitement of dual slalom racing with the thrill and skill of slopestyle and trials riding. Course inspection and practice is on Friday from 8am to 11am with qualifying starting immediately afterwards. Sunday starts with another round of practice from 8am to 11am with the finals beginning at 11am. Come out and make some noise for Team Haro!


Haro/Kenda trials pro Mike Steidley will be making the long trip out from the East Coast to put on his famous trials shows for everyone at Sea Otter. Come by the Haro booth to see why Mike Steidley has earned eight U.S. National Championships titles…his stunts defy gravity! Mike’s show schedule goes as follows:

Thursday, April 15th: 12 noon and 2pm
Friday, April 16th: 11:30am and 2pm
Saturday, April 17th: 11:30am, 2pm, and 4pm
Sunday, April 18th: 11:30am and 2pm

See ya there!

Porter in Spain

Just got back from a Gravity team trip to Malaga Spain, to stay with Ruben Alcantera and film and shoot photos. It was pretty amazing, I love it over there. The riding, food, people, scenery, everything is awesome.We ended up getting a lot of good shots, but not as many as we had hoped. Several places we really wanted to ride got completely flooded out, this is the wettest winter in recorded history I think for that area, it was supposed to be sunny and 75 degrees the whole time we were there!!! Anyway here's a bunch of photos to show you some of the spots we rode, and some scenery as well, enjoy! Also, check out Decline magazine in the next few months for the article to be coming out, and when the video is done from the trip I'll post it here as well!

Martin Ogden & Haro Porter bike check

UK's Martin Ogden aka "Oggy" has been on the bike racing scene for a number of years now as a pro rider and he has battled his way into becoming one of the darkest horses on any race track. A huge all-round talented racer and a very genuine down to earth bloke - whether its a 4X race or Time trial event, this guy excels at it.

Pink Bike's John Lee interviewed Oggy and produced this cool little video clip of him riding his Porter. Read the entire interview here!

The Steel Reserve Eight: the ultimate play bike!

If you're looking for a bike that's a guaranteed good time, check out the Steel Reserve 8. This probably won't be the bike you'll take on a 20-mile cross country ride, but it will be the bike you reach for time and time again for dirt jumping, urban assault, pump track, and even dual slalom.

With a sweet cromoly steel frame designed specifically for freestyle MTB, a Marzocchi Dirt Jump 2 80mm travel fork, SRAM X.9 8-speed rear derailleur, Avid BB5 mechanical disc brakes, and a host of other dirt-worthy parts on it, the Steel Reserve 8 is ready to rip right out of the box!

Don't just take our word for it. Check out the video John Lee from the UK sent to us of him shredding his Steel Reserve 8 through the English countryside. If this doesn't make you want to invest in a play bike, we don't know what will. Looks like he's having a killer time.
