Returning for a third season in 1996, the Haro Group 1 Ti occupied the step above the entry-level Zi in Haro’s race range. It targeted aspiring racers and riders wanting styling without the price of the lighter Ci, Si or aluminium-framed Ali. The Ti shared the family’s 20.6-inch top tube, 74.5-degree head angle and V-bar monostay profile, but upgraded the Zi with a chromoly main tube and 175 mm one-piece crank. Haro Racing 36-hole alloy rims also replaced the Zi’s steel wheels, helping reduce weight from 27.75 to 25.25 pounds. An alloy rear cantilever brake reflected race practice, while the tapered high-tensile fork, Haro racing bars and Fusion stem maintained a purposeful cockpit. A 44-tooth Fusion alloy Disk Drive, 16-tooth freewheel, ACS alloy fat hubs and Haro Holeshot tyres completed its specification. Offered in chrome, Trans Teal or Fire Truck Red, the Ti balanced affordability, sizing and credible track performance.
