Submitted by Brian a from Washington DC
Date Reviewed: June 14, 2005
Duration Product Used:6 months
Price Paid: $250.00
Strengths:Price, solid overall build
Weaknesses:Brakes, pedals, weight
Similar Products Used:Evil Imperial MTB
Bike Setup:Profile cranks, Odyessey Evolver brakes, 36H wheels w/Maxxis Holy Rollers
Bottom Line:Awesome bike to bang around on without having to think about it's impact on your wallet. Strong solid build out of the box. That said, these parts are strong but heavy. I liked the bike so much I've upgraded most of it with the idea of cutting weight. The stock 48H wheels were a bit much and I got some lighter cranks too. Weight is a personal preference, but I'd definitely recommend a new brake setup and some new pedals. The forged pedals are kinda cheap and slippery, and with just a rear brake you're going to want a new setup with more power. Overall, great entry price with tons of potential. I love mine for street and jumping.

Submitted by DK \ a Weekend Warrior from Australia
Date Reviewed: July 31, 2004
Favorite Trail:crewe st australia!
Duration Product Used:1 Year
Price Paid: $320.00
Purchased At:Victor Cycles Brisbane
Strengths:this thing rocks, like seriously, just my opinion, but the only bike i would dream of getting for under 1000 ausstralian dollars, about 700 american
Weaknesses:ive had it for a year, and rode like a thousand km's on it, and i fallen off everything none to man, and the only thing to brake is the handle bar grips. i havent replaced them though....
Similar Products Used:ive ridden other ppls cruisers, and there heavyier and just not as good a ride...
Bike Setup:go to www.dkbicycles.com
double walled sunrims 24"
no gyro
wellgo pedals
everything else is DK and on the website
Bottom Line:This is the first 24" jumper mass produced it is a gift from the gods.....

i rode a 20" bmx before it, then a hartail 26" mountain bike, and i did alot of dirt jumping and this bike provides the flexability of a bmx, but also with the smoothness of a mountain bike.
