DYNO-MYTE

[tucker]

First off let me apologize for the CHEEZY name. The victim is about a 2002 Dyno street series tag. I believe this was designed for department stores. I will attempt to make it a park bike with more interesting components I have lying around. I am in the middle of a kitchen Reno, so reports will be sporatic.

That's a nice Sunn Bogota fork for sure.

 

[tucker]

thanks Hamppea for letting me know who made the forks. I will get started on the bike soon.

 

[hamqqea]

lol, thought you knew. Almost bought one till I scrolled down to the price
Had the 1st gen Hoffman Super Fork.

have fun!

I was working in a bike shop and was just about to start my 3rd inventory there. I new the boss had counted it for the last 10 years. I took it to him and said “ do you want to count this again or do you want to sell it to Me for 20 bucks“. He sold it to me. I did not know who made it, I just liked it and knew I would use it one day.

Because of the interest in the fork, I started there. I had a little battle getting the stem out.

 

[MattiThundrrr]

Dude, nos? Serious score at $20. I would say that the starting point for those could be like ten times higher than what you paid. Sweet deal

Yes MattI if I did not buy them they would still be counting them.
tonite I added the wheels, tires, seat and post. I am not stuck on the wheels ( the color I choose may change my mind) and the stem looks awkward to me. But this is just the mock up, things usually change.

 

[MattiThundrrr]

Bars match the fork nicely too.

 

[tucker]

I have changed the stem, making it closer to bike. And I added pegs to the back. Next I am going to try wheels with 48 spokes and see how that looks.

 

[tucker]

I finally got the frame and wheels back from the soda blaster And started painting. Not sure on the color. I found a cast iron color i am going to try on the wheels.

 

[tucker]

Painting done, assembly started

 

[tucker]

Here it is assemble, not finished I am still waiting on decals and new pedals if I can find some. The was made entirely with parts i had laying around ( except for the paint).
