Who owns dk bikes

They went to far in the commercial side wich turns people off when they see the brand at a walmart or kmart. The team riders are not very well known. Same kids who berate haro too, they buy dirt cheap low quality complete and bitch on internet.

You get what you pay for, high end mongoose, diamondback, dk etc. I had a Diamondback in high school back in , no brakes, and no seat lol, it was badass at the time.

Sue me. Its a shame kids dont buy more of the high end completes, everybody wants to be cool and buy the cool name brand bikes, ill take a DK over a Stolen bike any day. Dk is not bad at all drew bezanson and Jamie bestwick ride them you get what you pay for if you don't wanna spend on high end parts you have no reason to bitch about entry level completes. Its a shame kids dont buy more of the high end completes, everybody wants to be cool and buy the cool name brand bikes, ill Theirs this kid in my neighborhood that just bought a Kink Curb, we were at the basketball court the other day and he looked at my bike and said " DK lol!

He denied it till I showed him on my phone lol! He felt stupid. Most kids getting into bmx are gonna buy a bike based off an image and name brand. For all those brands you listed they're associated with department stores and i think that's what hurts them the most. No matter the specs most kids these days want to have a "cool" bike and would rather have something like a completely hi-ten Cult or Sunday than a full chromoly mongoose for the same price just because of the name brand.

Stranger Bike Check. I think I can shed some light upon this matter As a wal-mart bicycle assembler and mechanic, I can say that the price point that the average customer is willing to pay for a bicycle 20" is roughly in the dollar range, therefore, bicycles that are sold for more are generally left unsold, and then get "deleted and marked down and are not brought back into stock.

Ill give you an example, I recently sold a Schwinn Varsity xl Road bicycle which was originally sold at These bikes are available online though. So in order to continue supply, a bike manufacture may design a low end bike for department store sales, The mongoose Mode , 's The DK Bestwick, great examples.

It is possible to buy a good bike from a department store, I've been very happy with my DK Cleveland, with 2 dk stock pegs on, and a kink super stump post, and pivotal odyssey monogram seat.

The General Lee is now made in Taiwan. They introduced their first frame in Then they moved on to a chromoly frame specifically built for jumping, and then, the super-strong S.

This gave them more levereage when getting products produced. Their high end frames are just as good as ever. Unfortunately, we have closed the machine shop and FBM will no longer manufacture bikes. Overall Conclusion. Both Huffy and Schwinn have their benefits. Overall, Huffy is much more affordable than Schwinn, making the brand a better choice for the casual biker. However, Schwinn is higher in quality, making it the better choice for a professional or avid biker.
