Some DK history (more added)
dialledbikes:
DK's a cool company and with deep BMX roots.
I always liked their first race frame (the DK Pro) from when Robbie Morales and Cory Muth were on the team. I've also got one of those original General Lee's (like the orange one in the pic above - but mine is black) which I picked up used on Ebay for about $160 complete bike with Slams, Kastan cranks, etc.
I'm a bit disappointed that Neal Wood didn't ride a DK when he was sponsored by them. Neal's always been one of my favourite riders mainly cos he is/was rad as fook on the track and at the trails, but also cos he seemed to "keep it real" (whatever that cliche means). I thought Neal would have kept it real and rode a DK (though I suppose if it was a DK designed frame made by S&M that he rode, that's a custom built DK, so not that bad really).
Stace:
'96 / '97 :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:

Will get round to building it up at some point :)

I went riding with my mate Geoff on friday. He has got one of those orange General Lee frames, just as his normal bike. Its not any kind of "Build", its just his bike. Although he is starting to think about getting something lighter.
