Haro Bikes signs Phil Sundbaum; partners with the Summer of Shred

Haro Bikes is proud to welcome world-class urban/slopestyle rider Phil Sundbaum and our partnership with the all-new "Summer of Shred" world tour. Phil joins the Haro mountain bike team for the 2008 season and will be globetrotting with the Summer of Shred tour aboard Haro Bikes. The Summer of Shread tour will be an international mountain bike event that travels to the four corners of the earth with featured rider Phil Sundbaum. The tour will be an effort to learn about each mountain biking discipline from the top riders who are the best in their respective fields. Sundbaum and the Summer of Shred tour will be taking on Haro's entire line of bikes globally to explore and test the endless applications of their product in every possible environment. Phil Sundbaum had a breakout year in 2007, standing on podiums domestically at Ray's 3Ride and the Whan Bam Thank You Jam. Additionally, Phil made his first trip to Europe to compete against the world's best, where he wasted no time in landing the first ever 720 in international competition. With regard to his upcoming 2008 season and recent signing with Haro, Phil said, "I am excited to not only be embarking on a world tour where I'll have the opportunity to ride and learn from the world's best-but also to be supported by a brand that I respect and enjoy. I am fired up to be on the Haro team with Eric Porter and I'm looking forward to showing the world what I'm capable of on two wheels". www.harobikes.com
