I had had a Bullet Bomber until yesterday. I didn't plan to buy a new bike because I was satisfied.

I bought it 210 euros or something 3 years ago. It has some problems now;

The handlebar is not straight because of some falls, the wheels are bent in some points but the frame is alright. So I had in my mind to buy some new wheels and do some fixes with a screwdriver. But, I hadn't noticed that the two bars that hold the front wheel were a bit bent. Yesterday, after a bunnyhop, the bars I'm talking about became like this; [the yellow rectangular shows where the bar should be]


I now think that fixing this is money wasting, so I should buy a new one, more durable.

I don't want to pay more than 300 euros, and have in mind to get a Haro. I am almost sure this is the best for me. It costs 250 euros. What do you think?
 
Haro's are certainly a good name and a good idea to go for depending on your money.

Myself, I have a Hoffman Condor and haven't had a problem with it at all but they are expensive and could be out of your price range. I don't actually know what they retail at these days.
 
Well I trust Haro and think that the F2 will not have problems of bunnyhops or staircase jumps. I have some more brands in my mind like Ideal, Sector or Mongoose but IMO Haro has better bikes than these brands, and I was surprised from the price, 255 euros for a Haro is great 👍 . But if somebody else has suggestions or advices I would appreciate it. :) I'll check Hoffman too, my cousin has one and he finds it very good.
 
I visited the websites of Haro, Hoffman and GT and now I don't know what to buy! They are all the same wtf! Also GT talks about strong frames and forks [what I am looking for] suitable for ramps etc. But I don't want to buy one and regret it, because of founding out that another is better at the same price. :nervous:

But I am sure that anything from Haro, Hoffman or GT will be better than the Bullet that I have now (with a bent fork but anyway :p )
 
Thread bump,sorry about that :guilty: What about Proper bikes,Stolen Bikes,or even Felt bike?Those are good brands in my opinion.I had a GT before,but got stolen a few years back :( Haven't been riding since.If you want a good brand,i think Fit Bike are good,so was Specialized but u think its better for you to replace the handlebar and forks than buying a new bike.But its your choice,i'm not forcing you to buy or anything......
