Yes, DK is a great company in my opinion. They are much more down to earth than most of these companies today. They sell bike for cheap that are made of good materials.
And it has Full chromoly bars/forks/frame/cranks and sealed hubs and a pivotal.
The only weakness i can see are the single walled rims. I suggest you keep your psi at the max it can go to avoid bottoming out on curbs and getting flat spots on the rim.

I build a custom Kink now, but I still have the DK general lee that i started on and i still ride it when it rains outside.

You honestly can't do better for $290

And don't buy any parts till they break. Maybe get some grips or sticky pads if the one's it comes with are bad (although my dk already came with stick pads)
