I'm on vacation and this is listed close to where I am. They want $160. What is it? Looks like a 20" kids bike to me.

Dayton empire kustom

If I remember right, it's a huffy. Built in Ohio, should be a sticker near the bottom bracket. I used one for my Air Force Too attempt.

Not sure if it's worth $160, but you don't see them often.
It is a 20. Should have 20x3 Kenda flames.

The fork legs are similar to a Jesse James chopper, but about 5" shorter.
 
Made in China, NOT DAYTON or anywhere in the USA. It was made around 2002-2005. My little brother had a Huffy chopper, barely rode it.
 
I didn't take a picture of the sticker, but this is my post from the build.

So I'm looking at how to go about cutting the bb off the Dayton frame and I see a sticker.
It has a model number,under that it says HBC 901 pleasant valley drive Springboro Ohio.
Of course I look this up and it says that's where Huffy and DK bicycles are. Learn something new everyday.

I also found while doing a search that RRB member yoothgeye used one of these frame a few years ago to build a bike for his kid.

Anyway this was interesting to me so I thought I'd share.

I figured it was manufactured there, but might have just been a corporate address.
