Dk Step up 08 vs. Stolen Pinch 08

Dk is lighter, dk has tubular cranks, both have kendra tires. Which is better?? Ill be using it for street and some dirt jumps. Oh and dk will be in black and stolen will be in white.

Thanks!

I would have to say the DK. At least it has some chromoly. And yes, you can put pegs on it.

Do the DK.

At my weight(200lbs), I was afraid to take my old step up to the jumps for fear of "snap'age. Now I'm thinking it could have handled it.

I don't know. 200 pounds is quite a bit for a bike with only a chromloy downtube. But you never know.

I'd say neither because DK Step Up=fail.

I had a Step Up, it failed hardcore. I just got a replacement for the bars that broke they sent me some Kachinsky 7/11 bars.

Stock steel bars for signature chromo bars? Not bad.

Speaking of bars, Fly powercurve bars are mega light.

Really? I'll have to check those out. My friend got those Fly bars for 5$ at the bike swap meet. I couldn't think anything could get lighter than that.
