Eddie Fiola was sponsored by Bob Haro and the Torker low profile
frame was a popular frame to use for flatland and ramp riding.
This was an incredible day at the Skate City bowls as Eddie
debuted the opposite one hander one footer and lookback one
hander aerials!
The winning bike looking simple featured some rare components:
* Bottema Skate park reinforced forks
* Redline non-pinch flite cranks
* Skyway Graphite Tuff II's with Campagnolo first generation
hubs
* Mitsuboshi Competition III Yellow label tires
* MAX seat cover
* Bob Hadley sealed bottom bracket in Gold
Eddie left HARO soon after this to start MORALES/FIOLA (MF) and
the Torker was redesigned into the HARO Freestyler late 1982.
