Post by: oldschoolace on July 26, 2015, 10:27 AM
They don't seem to get much love in here, is it the drainpipe posts putting people off  :-\

What do you mean by 'not much love'?  that not many people have them or people slate them?  there's been quite a few people on here that's done some cracking Dyno's in the past  :daumenhoch:

I mean you don't see that many Rob, given the volumes produced and the number of them over on the museum

Dyno's are more of an American thing, Clint. They are also more geared towards flatland and when they were being released, Haro and GT Pro Performers were already hugely established.

I do like a Dyno bashguard though  :daumenhoch:

I like the frame & as said they rode pretty good for flat, the forks are nasty though  :LolLolLolLol:

The one above with the curved profile forks look pretty cool I would deffo build one if I could .
There were a lot of later ones which were quite cheap/generic which don't get much love I suppose.....

I think a dyno is a hard bike to build, get one in factory spec and they look stunning, try to do your own thing and they look wänk, I can only think of 2, one of which is dans, that weren't spec but still looked great

I'm doing one at the moment although its not the freestyle frame, I still don't know what frame it is other than it is certainly a Dyno as denoted by the D at the back of the seat tube. I'm just saving up to have it powder coated. It does have a coaster brake bracket on it which seems odd for a bike that looks like it should be for racing and not freestyle

tbf though you like everything (or at least you're too polite to say when you don't)

Dave Racine's is a beaut as mentioned above - think they may have suffered from the brand being cheapened a bit when all the shit Dynos came out later.

Are there any pics of Dave Racine's one for us uninitiated?
