1 DK General Lee

General Lee BMX Bike

YEEEEEEEEEEHAWWWWWWWWWW!!! The typical Lee has actually returned!

In the belated 90’s, DK was primarily generally a competition brand name, however the General Lee “jumping frame” hook them up to the chart much more than a stem maker. Modeled following the popular Dodge Charger from “The Dukes of Hazzard”, the overall Lee was coveted by trail bikers worldwide, and also Dave Freimuth modified the trail geometry as their everyday ramp driver. Through the years, the GL has developed from an aftermarket frameset into an entry-level ride (and even a cruiser), but 2015 brings a return to create, this time as increased end total bike.

Making it’s return as a high-end complete cycle means the new General Lee is no longer fashioned with hi-tensile metal pipes; complete 4130, internally butted & tapered chromoly tubing includes the Duke males’ theoretical ride, such as the taverns & hand, that also is sold with a 1-piece CNC’d steer tube. Geometry regarding new model is a bit newer; gone will be the 14+” curved backside stays, replaced with straight pipes and calculating in at 13.6”, the rear end is preparing to spin faster than Roscoe’s patrol car while in hot pursuit. A 75 degree mind pipe with a built-in headset is a somewhat reasonable position when compared with numerous tech street frames nowadays, additionally the 11.9” base bracket height is incredibly manual-friendly. “Hugger” orange paint & distinct pictures made the typical Lee one of the more identifiable cars ever built, and we look at initial paint plan reproduced right here (without the movie stars & taverns, woof). DK adds unique special variations in the form of a 3D mind pipe badge, and a laser-cut star rear chair stay brace.

Although the look really defined the overall Lee, it couldn’t fly through environment like it did without having the appropriate drive train, together with exact same applies to the complete bike. DK gets you going with a collection of their particular personal chromoly cranks, featuring heat-treaded 4130 arms, a 48-spline spindle and a sealed middle base bracket. The DK Khan sprocket clocks in at 26t, providing a tad bit more speed whenever you’re prepared to introduce, and their Computer pedals will soften the blow on hard landings & slipped pedals. You can’t cruise without tires, plus the General Lee rolls along on a couple of black colored SMART double-wall 36 opening rims, featuring sealed bearings, female axles and a 9t driver inside back. Tires are provided by fellow Ohio brand Kenda, in the form of all-purpose 2.25” Ticket treads, and you’ll skid to an end utilizing the WISE alloy u-brake and lever combo. Not feeling brakes? Dump ‘em quickly with DK’s removable brake mount setup.

DK made its mark inside path scene using the original General Lee, but they got their begin in BMX with regards to original top load quill stem, so that it’s no surprise to see their new Chamberlain stem is a callback for their roots. I don’t believe I ever before saw the Duke males putting on not denim, so that it’s suitable to understand WISE Tripod seat have the same treatment. DK performed a great task creating the new General Lee, and if you would like one, you better reach out to neighborhood supplier fast, since these had been produced in suprisingly low figures. Coming in at just $649.95, you don’t have to be employer Hogg to afford one, often.
