Good walk through, brother. Wish I would've found you guys months ago. I been looking for that Haro Pistol EVERYWHERE. I wanted that thing BAD. Let's see what Haro has next year. ✊✌️Brother.
I love it but my brakes are shot, the stock seat is trash, stock grips gave me huge blisters, and the brake line makes lots of noise because it hits the bars when im doing wheelies. Atm mine is unridable because the brakes are impossible to adjust since only one brake arm has a spring in it. The other brake arm is always in the wrong spot because like I said these brakes are a pain in the ass to adjust. The brake line stretched in 3 places and the brake lever makes noises because the line is too long and doesn't sit it the lever properly. Other than that I havent had problems, im suprised the seat clamp held up since its integrated into the frame and I tighten the shit out of it. My cranks came loose after the first day of riding but taking them apart, cleaning and re greasing fixed that. The tires are decent... the washers the hold your wheel in the dropouts if your nuts come loose broke immediately. My back rim is pretty bent...I dont jump off curbs or anything like that my back tire is ALWAYS on the ground, the front rim is perfectly fine even after slamming it down. But the bike has a great balance point if you like to do wheelies. But you do need a different seat and probably some soft odis or something. I put 8 inch rise fit bars on and it felt terrible so I dont recommend upgrading the bars to a different size. The pedals are a little cheap but its a 400 dollar bike so dont expect to get the most amazing high quality bike you've ever seen.
I definitely agree with all you said. I just adjusted the brakes to where that one side is not rubbing the rim anymore burning out the brakes. Seat is hard and uncomfortable after a few minutes of riding. My back rim seems to have a little bend In it also. Could be from rough handling shipping or something with production. Went with some 10.5” R4 bars and have a more comfortable feel. Sometimes the freewheel feel like it has a lag In it after coasting and re engaging. Looking to try a 17t ROS freewheel and see how the ride changes since that’s a highly recommended freewheel so many speaks highly of over others. Wish they gave tire wall options because I don’t like the brownish grey wall. Makes the bike look dirty when it’s clean. Changing tires one of these days and adding pegs. Other than that I like the pistol more than I thought I would.
Sloride is still made & pistol is no longer made. As for the ones that were made, pistol has a different frame & sealed wheels. Most parts are the same just with different artwork. The pistol is now the Group 1 for 2023.
yes but keep in mind it is a complete bike and if you are going big you will have to replace stuff as you break stuff or switch stuff out at the get go. I replaced everything on mine except frame & forks. I am confident it won't break down on me.
Keep checking our website. They can come and go within hours. Our suggestion is to buy any 29"er and wait to buy the exact one you want, then sell the first one you bought.
Hey bro I just got a 26" Haro Pistol and I'm having an issue where every time I downward pedal it makes a ticking noise? Any idea what I can do to fix it? I've tried greasing the seat post, greasing all the bb, greased the freewheel, greased pedals, please help
I have the 2020 RS1 26inch and I love it.. and everyone wants to jack me for it hahaha I will say the crank arms need an immediate swap out on these for sure!
Bought one around a month ago. Pros - the frame and forks are dope, same with the handlebars and brake levers. Cons - the BB is shit, the freewheel is shit and the rear hub crapped itself. Was just cruising around not thrashing it at all. If you love the look of the bike, get it, so much fun. However, be prepared to replace parts as the stock complete is ass. Have fun yeoow
I don't know where you took your bike too but we had complaints with popping sound. All it was is a better freewheel. Many people that it was the BB, hub, freewheel. All our customers received sealed wheels and we upgraded their freewheels at no charge. Glad you got it fixed.

Your attention to detail and explaining the specs is the best vid so far for this bike...excellent job ... Thank you!
Great video Larry thanks for letting know everything there is to know about my bike! I have this same exact model

Website??
Good info helping me narrow down my search
Put me in for the free bike. I thought your run down of this rad ass bike was informative and thorough. Thanks keep them coming.
Great looking bike🙂👍! The only negatives about the bike are that V Brake & lack of a Gyro to house the rear cable.
Great bike. Really liked the video!!
I picked this bike up and it’s way to nice 29” perfect for me I’m barley 5’6😅
Same
But I have to backorder it tho

I’m 5’6” and was debating between going smaller. Does it feel big?
Everything about this bike is fire 🔥 I like everything
Thanks for the walkthrough. I got to say though, the fork is chromoly and the seat post is alloy.

Yes
I liked the fact that you explained the whole color and everything and I didn't like that you could ride it
I like that bike its cool and ghetto

Explained great
Bike is dope !

Sorry I’m 2 years late responding lol but I’m 5’10 and the 26 is perfect for me

What’s the difference between the slo-ride and the pistol
Sloride is still made & pistol is no longer made. As for the ones that were made, pistol has a different frame & sealed wheels. Most parts are the same just with different artwork. The pistol is now the Group 1 for 2023.
can you add pegs on it?
I like the bars and pads really 🔥🔥🔥
graphic came out sick
Good run down on her, just got one today.
looks very cool the graffiti font pops out
I just bought one pistol p 29 for retail at a local shop
Can I treat an aluminum cruiser like a bmx. Or am I head for trouble. What I mean is curbs. Dirt track. Small jumps.
yes but keep in mind it is a complete bike and if you are going big you will have to replace stuff as you break stuff or switch stuff out at the get go. I replaced everything on mine except frame & forks. I am confident it won't break down on me.
I looked at the specs for the bike and in video you said it has double wall rims, and in specs it’s says single wall rims?
I think that's pretty dope
Pretty cool
bro this bike is sick but I can't afford it and my mom said it's to much money but Hopefully you pick me to win the bike
