$320.00 | | Purchased At: | DeKalb Cyclery | | Strengths: | Pretty much everything, this bike comes with alot of good stuff. Its a 2005 bike, and so far the only thing I needed replacing was a rim and tubes. Very very solid, but still very light. A very smooth ride. This bike comes with some cool hybrid tires too. ;) | | Weaknesses: | The brakes weren't that good, but I honestly dont use them enough to justify spending money on new ones. | | Similar Products Used: | Haro 2005 F3 | | Bike Setup: | All stock with primo pegs. | | Bottom Line: | I ride street pretty much every day, with pegs (not stock)this thing is awesome. I've used it for dirt, and it works for that too. This is a great bike for beginners and experts alike, and believe me, I know, with this one bike I went from one to the other. Stands up to everything you throw at it, hard slams, everything. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$300.00 | | Strengths: | strong frame,thick,and sturdy
3pice cranks,perfect for jumping and good for street. I dont think this bike should be bought by people who will just let it sit and collect dust, this bike should be bought by people who will use it forever | | Weaknesses: | a little heavy about 37-38 lbs,after being jumped for at least a month the crankes got loose,didnt like the fuzion seat or seat post so i got origional haro seat and seat post, also the sprokets are 39-13 | | Similar Products Used: | Diamond back joker really old bike | | Bike Setup: | Haro baktrail x3 frame,slim bars,odessy brake cable(purple),
Snafu pedals,3 pice cranks(haro),front rim single wall,back rim double wall,front sproket 39,back 13 | | Bottom Line: | This bike is perfect for catching big air,or practesing tricks,learning how to become a true biker,I think this bike is for some one who can get mad air, I also think this bike can help out beginers who are just learning how to 180
because the haro backtrail x3 is a tank!! and when the biker gets a new bike it will be way easer to do tricks because the new bike probably will be lighter.Anyway I have been riding this bike for at least 6 months this is a good bmx bike!!!! | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

But it works | | Similar Products Used: | diamondback viper, not near as good as haro, and a whole list of dynos and gt's. and they all totally sucked haros balls. | | Bike Setup: | all stock for now. looking to put stronger wheels first. | | Bottom Line: | The x3 is a great bike no dought. even though i have only had it a few days. But I can tell from riding it that its a super solid dirt jumper built to withstand abuse, speed, and getting high like me. just go try it for yourself if you havnt riden it yet. bike shops let you ride whatever.
GREAT BIKE hopefully my crank is not busted. cuz that would make it suck | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

Fat claw was kinda defective dont spin easily as should, not haro's fault. grips are too hard, tires dont grip well on dirt or semi-slippery road. | | Similar Products Used: | many to name, ummm mosh 4-star,dk legacy,dragonfly,hoffman bike dirt merchant, eastern ace of spades, poverty g-ride. | | Bike Setup: | bike oem:21 top tube frame(ok), 14mm alex48spoke double wall y22rims(ok),haro 1-1/8headset cane creek sealed headset:),haro dirtjumper fork:),haro skidmark tires(eww)haro landing strip seat:), haro doubletorq seat post:)175 tubular 3pc. crank:),haro slimbars:)tektrofx-20 u brake(eww)
