Mark W Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 It's not the hardest thing in the world to switch frames :lol: Just give it a go :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si-man Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 YES!! Mate has a Pashley frame and that is waaaaay to long, I can't even lift the front end up lol Haro 540's are nice frames. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Harrison Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 Is it the old 540 Air frame with the pierced top-tube, or is it the new T-1 looking version? I think that the old ones (at least up until and including the 2002 range) had mainly high-tensile steel frames, and that combined with the already oversized tubing makes them a bit on the heavy side. As Mark said, give it a go, you can always change back. You might find that it's a bit heavier, but the shorter wheelbase could make it more fun to ride.

He says that the description was 03 though Its a mint bike! ride it first, get used to it, then change it later :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaRtZ Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 tt should be about 22.5 i think as for short bmx, try Steve hamiltons signature frame? Im sure ben said that he used to like flatland bikes so much he rode one until federal made a "flatland sized" street bmx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si-man Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 Yep, thats what frame im getting, the federal hamilton (Y) Can get it in 3 sizes, 19", 20", 20.5". Think 20" sounds good to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Motivator Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 Keep the Pash for a few reasons; Seb's Haro is the colour of puke Haro looks like a dimondback That Pashley looks lush Too much effort to change them Get a powerlite riot I love your coon balls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 The 20Mhz TT came in either 20.5" or 21.5", so I'm guessing you've got the 21.5" one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
