according to the owners this is the spec
demolition cranks (3pc),
chris benett sig. bars,
oddyssey rear break
and different chainring/pedals/brake lever/tyres from standard
i had to buy a new rear wheel as one of the fully sealed bearings fell out of the original one and the one i bought has a freewheel that is too large for the front ring (so its good on acceleration, not got a very good top speed) - these are cheap enough to replace if its a problem, also the hub is flip-flop and 14mm axle
I'm unsure whether to revert it back to standard OR treat it to some of the ideas in the trends for midschool bikes thread
-
:)
If you want to revert it to stock, I've got kicking around here somewhere the right DK bars, grips, plaggy bar ends, brake lever, cranks, pedals and chainring.
You'll need a Tektro FS-15 for the rear brake, and grab a new sealed bearing for the rear wheel, and coke-can shim the bearing seat in the hub (done it loads on bikes in the past - perfectly safe ;) )
Tyre-wise thay were generic square tread dirt tyres, so go all crazy and pop some Primo dirtmonsters on there :D
-
Nice one danny, should be with me on monday 8) not sure of its future, whether to stock it, or give it some real midschool mods, the parts that have been changed seem to have been changed for the better, decisions decisions
-
No worries fella - give's a shout when you get it if you need owt :daumenhoch:
I've got a fair old whack of mid-school schizz from the late 90's to 2003 kicking about so if you want to razzle it up a bit with period correct bits and bats let me know :)

Nice one fella. Im not all that up on the midschool thing as stopped riding, but I felt as I had a couple of old schools and a couple of new schools, something mid school was needed to finish off the collection
-
Give it some 'midschool-mods' :daumenhoch:
-
something mid school was needed to finish off the collection
And a nice way of doing just that - one of the late 90's more iconic frames the General, used to be around '98 you couldn't go to a park or trails without seeing at least one orange one :) Lot of em bit the sh1t though (the MK1's), heavy street riding on a frame designed for trails and some of them (not all) had a problem with the rear wishbones flexing too much.

Nice little tit bit of info there, cheers.
well I think I'm going to go the custom route as it'll give me more scope to fiddle with it over time as opposed to restore it then look at it, and I really do need to stop buying bikes, this ones going to live at work till after xmas I think, then be broght home piece by piece!!!!!
-
:daumenhoch: Cracking - tbh if you reverted to stock on that one, you'd end up with low end cranks (which you would have swapped out bitd anyhow). The 2002 Generals were top of DK's completes range (with the 4,6 and 8 Pack below it) bar the racing stuff they did. Give me a shout fella if you need any period correct sprockets etc when you customise it :)
And just to show off a bit and wet your appetite for some mid-schoolery, here's the MK1 General again that I got in 1997 - Peregrine hoops on Phat Jacks, Profile SS cranks, Iron sealed peds etc ;)

Ok so those cranks and pedals made me man batter the keyboard!!!! Where the fook can i get those pedals, bet they are rocking horse shlt knowing my luck

These would look good :daumenhoch:

They stopped making the OG sealed one's a while ago (they're slightly different on the new one's - not really noticable though), but you could up until around 2009 still pick up the unsealed DK Iron Cross Peds :) They also released magnesium one's late 2000's is teh zexy white ;)
You can still pick em up on t'Bay every now and again, also check out the Museum - there's an unsealed pair there for $15:
http://bmxmuseum.com/forsale/37413
Profile SS cranks - you can believe it or not even in weight weenie times still get em, but they're still pricey. I got the first set in the UK (other than the Ride mag one's) and remember holding em up to my regular profiles - meaty ;) They weigh a forkin ton though.
-
will keep a look out for pedals,
think I'll strip the new school goodies off it, and try and trade for midschool stuff to keep the cost down, as it only cost me £35 in the first place!!!
-
Well I can bung you a 43/44T sprocket (prob a black Xposure) for nowt fella, I'll root round and have a butchers for more stuffs. The sprocket's the same as the one on my Holmes here:

That sprocket is nice 8) if you find any early 90's pedals and a late 80's/early 90's front wheel lmk :daumenhoch:

sweet mate, that may save me changing the back wheel as it looks to have a 36t on the front and a 16t on the back, so one in the 40's would work a treat.
I'll wait til i get my hands on the bike and we can strike a deal fella, ive got a fair few OS and NS parts to trade, Actually got a NS DK stem Im about to replace with a demolition one on my S&M coming up for grabs soon, if that tickles your fancy
-
Honestly fella, don't want owt for it :) I've got a crap load of late mid school sprockets - here's some that are reachable amongst the piles of crap:

jesus wept!!!! like the profile, FBM and the bashguard ones, and that solid looking bugger on the top right
-
I to like the fbm one just right for my 2 hips build me thinks ;)
-
One of the best frames I ever owned -[ the mark one USA made one]
And the frame I was renowned for riding - hence my username !
Although I gave up building old/mid bikes years ago, Id still build a mark one if I could find one!
-
i have a set of iron cross pedals, i'll see if i can find them over the weekend and let you know. i also have a mod i made to use 2 cables from the bottom of the gyro shaped in an iron cross from when i had a dk 6 pack. i'll get a photo of it at the weekend too.

Forgot to add this to this thread - one of me favourite Ride covers :)
(http://i1236.photobucket.com/albums/ff443/dannywhack/RideCover.jpg)
-
Nice. Is that 1" or 1"1/8 ???
Do you know where I can land a new set of decals, including fork decals?
-
It's a 1 1/8" - does look like a 1" though :) The General only ever came 1 1/8", you can get 1" DK Pro's (the frame that the Generals were based on - basically they're a beefed up version of the DK Pro - the 1" Pro's are Kastan made).
Decals - if you mean the OG one's (that are on the Ride bike) then sadly there just aren't any floating around (unless someone here's got some). I can trace off, scan and rattle you up some .ai files if you want someone to repop em for ya though :)
Which reminds me - who on here's got the NOS S.O.B.? Really, really would like some close ups of the decals so I can repop 'em for my SOB ;)

Im in no rush fella so if you get some spare time then that would be awesome, got someone here that can print them for me
Is the SOB the one with the oversized downtube?
-
Will do then fella - might take a bit, but no worries :)
Yeah - although not just oversize DT, oversize bloody everything ;), good old Colin Winkleman's sig frame - here's mine all naked :( :
(http://i1236.photobucket.com/albums/ff443/dannywhack/sob.jpg)
Came out the same time as the General :)
-
that lower wishbone is an interesting construction. I like things like that, bit of intrest, something newschools dont seem to do, you could resticker most new schools as something different and you would never know
-
True :) I think that's down to new-school innovates with frame geometry and materials, whereas mid school sided on the strength side of things - hence the sometimes bizzare looking (and heavy as fook) frames ;)
-
I remember when the SOB frame came out and how bad I wanted a General Lee in that sexy orange paint do... RIP Colin Winkelman, what an awesome rider he was.
-
i found my iron cross pedals. not too bad condition, 2 pins missing from 1 pedal and 1 pin missing from the other. their for 3 piece cranks and weigh a ton. any good for you? i'll get some pics later.

A tragedy mate. Do some research if you're not familiar with Colins career. Arguably the first person to pull a double flip waaaaayyyy back in about 95 or something. Flairs all over the place when people weren't really doing that, and big big banging gaps and transfers. Not to forget a world record long jumper.
Too many people associate him with jumping moving ramps and that annoys me a little bit. That was just a tiny part of what he was.
It's gingerholmes who has the NOS SOB. As I recall it amused Alex a great deal when I mentioned on here that I'd made him buy it :)
-
So it landed at work today, quick finger tight build up and look over and this what there is
2002 DK General Lee frame, forks and stem, very chipped and scratched, but no dinks, cracks or rewelds that i can see]
Volume Kris Bennet Bars
FSA The Pig DH Pro Headset
Primo lever
Odyssey Evolver Rear brake
Odyssey Giro G3 and cables
Demolition cranks with a sealed BB [unsure of brand]
Kink 36t sprocket
KMC kidney shaped chain
Chrome freewheel [cant see brand through the dropout]
Sun ZX25 rim laced tosealed unbranded hub with odyssey path tyre [front]
Alex Supra J laced to a sealed prolite stealth hub with a primo V monster tyre
Mutiny Seat clamp
Kink micro adjust seatpost
Odyssey saddle
It weighs in at 15.5kg / 34lbs on the scales at work but definately doesnt feel that heavy will weigh on the floor scales next time

Not bad stuff on that bike fella :daumenhoch:
The front wheel is stock (the hubs a Formula hub), and you've got (if I spy the bevelled edge correctly) a DK Jumping Stem (which didn't come as stock - released in early 1998 and a v nice stem - you can flip it as well).

Nice is that J :daumenhoch:

that explains why the DK logo is on the bottom of the stem as well! I was wondering.
I'm really liking the hotch potch of parts on it, Im actually disappointed theres not more stock parts on it for me to change to be honest. Definately need a chainring as 36 16 isnt great. I was just totting up the total of parts worth and You'd probably spit feathers if you knew what i picked this up for complete
Even came with a bloody great big coated chain and expensive padlock with three keys, pair of demolition pegs, spares for the oddy brake, and a london mod, and spare links for the chain
-
I'll sort you out with a sprocket then fella - no troubs.
Just noticed the top-cap on those forks as well - that looks like a screw on DK one - any chance of a piccy of the dropouts on the forks? Think you might also have DK Street forks on the bad-boy as well ;)

So much for bringing it in piece by piece mate :LolLolLolLol:
Sounds like a score and a half here :daumenhoch:
-
Yeah bringing it in bit by bit went wrong, but seem to have gotten off lightly as she said you shouldve bought another shed for your bikes instead, so I take that as i can have another shed to fill with bikes then!!
Here you go Danny, enthrall me with your wisdom, especially as to why there is a C on both rear dropouts??? And scored on the freewheel, its an ACS Claws.. SSSSssswwweeeeeeett!!

That's the first time in years anyone's mentioned my name and enthralling in the same sentence (then again I've been with the missus for 8 years, so there's the answer ;) )
Score on the extra shed :daumenhoch: And on the freewheel - nice - can't go wrong with a Claw :)
Them forks are the later version DK Dirt Forks - came out around the same time as the frame (and came with it). Full chromo again, can't remember though if they had a machined steerer tube (think they did though).
And as for the 'C' - no idea :D
Love those stems - got a couple meself - they were £50 when they first came out - rode heavily on two of em and never got bar shift :)
-
Nice one, still baffled as to what to do with it long term. In the short term Im going to slap the pair of pegs on and go get some grinding in on the park at the back of my house as i havent got pegs on any other of my rides. think I'll ride it hard for a while and see where it stands after some abuse, as its in a pretty sorry state paint wise and really could do with a powdercoat
-
here's a pic of the pedals i have, still spin nice and just need a clean up. can't find the iron cross brake mod i made just yet, it's probably hiding in my shed but i will find it.

Looks sweet! :daumenhoch:

Looks great :daumenhoch: I had a 2Kish one in the dark blue/green colour and loved it . . . 21" TT was waaay too long for me though (and how blinkin' high is that seat ;D ) so it eventually got swapped for a Federal Nation . . . tried for ages to source a 20" without any luck.

Yep, mine weighed a ton too - I miss that midschool heft ;D
-
Looks like I've lost this already, daughter asked if she could go over the skate park [as I had all the bikes out] I said fine off she went, I went over a little later and bugger me she's not on her bike she's on mine, she said, I like this bike, I think it's mine now

You got the peds, sprocket and bars on yet Jaymz?
-
Peds are on bars and Spocket on this weekend. Just need to find the spare links for the chain as only running a 31 atm and the axles are right up in the dropouts.
-
shlt weather stopped play time. so bars and sprocket are still not on, but i did do some decals up for it, went for the mkl versions as the mkll's that i have are a bit clunky
(http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/aa130/CUINHELLJAYMZ/dk_GL.png)
just need someone to print them for me

Finally bared the cold and went to play ith bikes today,

get new giro cables
get decals printed and fitted, i dont think im even going to paint it again, just a tidy up

That looks great fella :daumenhoch:
Like the new decals you're gonna get done - you should do (if there's room) a '01' for both sides of the seatstays like on me bike here:

Yeah - some of em flexed too much and snapped, others didn't - no idea why. Mine never had the 'moving' back end, few mates that had them did (and they would inevitably crack) - then again though if you used em for street they're bound to go eventually (as they're based on the DK Pro - a race frame) :)

Cool, got to say this is the hardest 'build' ive had. just cant decide what to do with it, they guy that owned it before me was obviously a pretty good rider, so the provenance of all the scratches is awesome, but then again, fresh orange powder and new decals would be made of win
-
You can expect boss hog to come along when you are on that :daumenhoch:
Nice bike Fella :smitten: :smitten:
-
Got Ral 2009 in stock as well!! win win

Kust my 2p's worth - ride the crap out of it as is, after you've added your own scars to it then see :daumenhoch:
