30 Haro Demo Bikes Stolen

Oct 1, 2007

Not so happy Monday everyone….

Sorry this isn’t in “official” press release format, but I just wanted to get the info out as quickly as I could.

Over the weekend (9/29-9/30), our trailer and rental Penske van were broken into while parked here at our Vista, CA headquarters. About 30 mountain bikes were stolen that were used at Interbike On Dirt Demo last week.Anyhow, it's sort of pointless to give a complete list with sizes, but here's sort of the run down:

4 Werx Sonix (crema color)
1 Sonix LT (Grey)
5 Sonix S (copper)
4 Werx Xeons (Pearl White...2 have 650b wheels)
4 Xeon S (Grey)
3 Mary SS 29er (1 ginger, 1 lt blue, 1 green)
5 Mary XC 29er (4 tangerine, 1 green)
1 Thread One (green/black fade)
1 Flightline Expert (cream color)
1 alloy 29er hardtail prototype; black with green graphics, green RST M29 fork
1 Masi CXR ‘cross bike (my personal bike)


Provided the thief did not remove them, each bike will have a white tag with a number from 1 to 30 applied on the top tube by the head tube gusset. This was our numbering system used for On Dirt Demo.

This is a sad day for us all since this represents our entire demo fleet. Be wary of any bikes that are on this list that are being sold below market value. You know the drill. If anyone has any information, please contact me at 800-289-4276.

Thanks everyone.

Jill

OFF TOPIC: HARO should put an extra frame numbers on the demo bikes or mark them somehow that they only will know ..
