has anyone ridden one of these? I can't find the geometry specs.

They seem like a simple, cheap little bike. I'm hoping to pick up an 05 on closeout... I think the 06 DKs are already out. Anyone seen a deal?

thanks!

I remember seeing a small article about them in decline a while ago. 600 for a complete? That's pretty cool. Not the best parts, but it's a total beater anywho. I don't remember if it had any impressions from riding the bike, and the article was pretty small, but I'd reccomend checking that out.

I'm happy with my dk ux24, I don't know if it's an '04 or '05. I bet they would have sold great if they would have advertised them more. It was the bike that caught my eye at Interbike two years ago. Mine weighs 30 lbs complete with my custom Marathon in it's "light race" mode.

I've asked to dk about its specification not geometry.

I dont think it was availible as an 05 model. Great bike for the money. It would be nice if it came with a disc compatible front wheel.

Ah, old thread. I'll tell you, if I had to go pay retail for a complete dirt jump MTB, the new little cromo GT is the one I'd buy. I don't remember it's name, but it's a funky bright gold color. It's got a really short rear end, decent parts, and I bet it's hella cheap.

I gave my DK to my little brother and built up a Tonic Fab Fall Guy, which is unquestionably the best bike out.
