I guess DBS is no more. Sad story. I love their bikes. Solid and reliable. Jonas Oglaend also made Tempo motorcycles and mopeds which still fetch a good price in Norway. They were one of the largest employers in the area for many, many years. I would love to ship a Tempo Corvette over to the USA. Come to think of it, I would also love a pair of good DBS bikes - the 5spd is fine with me. I like them a lot better than the Schwinn I ride now.
