Greg Minnaars 2003 Haro/Intense M1
Parts
General Info
This is Greg Minnaars 2003 race rig. This was his back up bike and it's unclear which races he may have ridden this bike on.
Rather than being a Haro DHR - this is actually a prototype Intense M1 that intense gave to a handful of riders including Chrs Kovarik, Eric Carter and a couple others.
This frame was built to test the new SPV dampers from 5th Element and Manitou. These shocks are much larger than the previous Fox dampers and required a completely redesigned front section to fit.
If you look closely at the shock mount, monocoque, cable routing you'll see this is not a DHR.
The build is almost exactly as Greg left it - with the exception of the wheels. He ran Sun rims. I am going to build up a pair of Rhyo Lites soon to match what Greg rode.
I've completely restored the bike to riding condition and ride it (carefully) regularly.
