Favorite Trail:my house
Duration Product Used:3 months
Price Paid: $215.00
Purchased At:ebay.com
Strengths:it is pretty strong, i have crashed it many times and it has held up pretty well.
Weaknesses:its brake lever is really weak, one crash and it snapped off
it also is a little heavy
Bike Setup:added snafu peg locks and a tektro talon brake lever
Bottom Line:it is a very good bike for begginners. it is a goos, strong bike. it can take a good amount of abuse. 250 is a good deal for this bike. works well for dirt jumping and some street abuse. not too good for racing though. it will race but not too well.

Favorite Trail:my trails
Duration Product Used:1 Year
Price Paid: $270.00
Purchased At:forgot what web site
Strengths:strong frame, nice handlebars, good tires and rims..in a year of rough riding and dirt jumping that came with a bunch of cases and bails i barely bent the wall of the rear rim.
Weaknesses:definately the crank..mines completely bent up..thats why im looking for a new bike.and bad brakes.
Similar Products Used:nothing to similar
Bike Setup:all stock..except made handlebars a little shorter..and i took off all the brakes and wires.
Bottom Line:in all its a pretty good and durable bike..its a pretty long lasting bike, but i would say you will need a new crank and some new brakes by 6 months if you ride pretty hard.i think its worth the cost though.

Strengths:it was the best bike i hae ever ridden, it rode smooth and had perfict geometry, and looks really sweet
Weaknesses:i have olny been riding it for a little lesst then 6 mounths and i was puttin a new set of brakes on and noticed a crack in the bottom bracket,

Favorite Trail:my own I built
Duration Product Used:1 Year
Price Paid: $250.00
Purchased At:Dans Comp.
Strengths:Light, strong, good geometry, great frame, cool graphics and just a great overall beginner or intermediate bike. This is my first bike but I'm gonna upgrade it to make it like a pro bike because the frame rocks.
Weaknesses:Crummy pedals, 1 piece cranks(which I bent quickly,) and you can't put pegs on the back axle so you'll have to go out there and get a new one if you want to grind.
Similar Products Used:-
Bike Setup:The only things I've changed about it so far is the cranks, grips, pedals, axles. Now I have Profile chromo cranks, Primo V-grips, S&M pro platform pedals, and I bought a longer axle.
Bottom Line:A great beginner bike but it will also stand anything a pro can give(with 3 piece cranks.) I suggest that anyone who wants a great bike to get into BMX the DK Eight Pack is the best bike out there.

Favorite Trail:mauch chunk ridge
Duration Product Used:6 months
Price Paid: $270.00
Purchased At:Actin Wheels
Strengths:Great frame, cheap, strong yet light
Weaknesses:cheap plastic pedals, cheap crank, the dropouts on back are too short to use pegs, longest handlebars i've ever seen
Similar Products Used:just mountain bikes
Bike Setup:primo powerbite cranks, Primo super tenderizor pedals, new axle
Bottom Line:If you are just getting into bmx this is the bike to get. It has a lot of bang for the buck. The frame is great. you can do anything with it but it dirt jumps best. If you want to grind you need to get a new axle for the rear. The crank is a piece of crap so i replaced it with a primo powerbite and that is working great. Also has plastic wellgo pedals that are crap. I replaced them with S&M Pro Platforms and when i got a new crank I got Primo Super Tenderizors which are also working out very nicely.
