In this video, I break down all the upgrades I made to dial this trail-ready hardtail into a true desert weapon. Whether you’re considering the Daley for your next ride or looking for upgrade ideas, this breakdown covers everything from tires to brakes to bars.

My Personal Haro Daley Setup:
These are the parts I used to tune the Daley for my desert riding needs:
Salsa Guide Bar (40mm rise)
Maxxis Assegai 2.5” (Double Down, Maxx Grip, Front)
Maxxis DHR II 2.5” (Double Down, Maxx Grip, Rear)
DT Swiss Ratchet Upgrade – I used an older 36t, but recommend the 54t upgrade for quicker engagement
Pro Torque Wrench for bar installation
