Default Haro Mary SS 29er

Has anyone seen this bike around? Does anyone know where I can find one? I can't even find any for sale online... Any other SS specific steel 29er recomendations?

Thanks.

My buddy just bought one from rock n' road cyclery in anaheim hills. They might have to order it but it only took 3 days.

Some other bikes in this price range:

Raleigh XXIX (non-suspension corrected)
Redline Monocog or Flight
Vassago Jaberwocky (I really want one of these)
Zion 737ebb (Jensonusa)
Kona Unit 2-9
KHS Solo

I'm sure there's others in the $600-900 range for a complete bike. Sorry no first hand experience, I'm still yearning for a steel 29'er myself.

You won't find one online. Haro doesn't allow internet sales.

I remember seeing an add in MBaction that said if you go to a Haro dealer and request a bike, they'll ship it out and let you take it out for a few days on demo rides

I've ridden the monocog quite a bit actually, and it rides like a MUCH more expensive bike than it is... great value.

That would be huge. I need to feel it out before I buy. Thanks.

Isn't Haro local? I've seen their employees out at Aliso Woods doing demos. Maybe it'll be easier to hook up a demo that way. Saw a couple Mary's on top of a Passat wagon that looked stellar.

Ditto that story, but from the Rock'n'Road in Mission Viejo, including the 3 day turnaround. So far he's raving about the bike.

Sounds like I will be heading over there in the next few days.

Thanks for the all of the positive input. I really appreciate it

I LOVE MARY!!! Got mine from Circle City Cycle.


Got the Medium - I'm 6' ... got the Rock Shox as an add on a few months later... the Main Divide is a rough ride without them... the Rock Shox Reba Race with Remote Lockout is lighter than the stock steel rigid...

Love it!!!

Hit me up if you wanna hookup to check her out...

Riding Temecula Sunday at Dawn, and Blackstar Tuesday Night...

Cheers, I have a pic on my album...

But the NinerBikes.com One Niner is pretty damn smokin too...

I prefer to ride a girl... I LOVE MARY!
