DK Fury
Heyy, I've been ridin street for not long (3 maybe 4 months) and im only 6' around 150 lbs and i have a old DK General Lee which isnt all that good of a bike but the only thing stock on it is the frame and forks. I love the bike (it is over 850 dollars), but I want to get a lighter bike now that I've got pretty good at bunny hops with a heavy bike and it's obvious that my muscles have grown and become a lot stronger but I'm just wondering if the DK Fury is a good bike (I'm changing the stem, sprocket, cranks, pedals, and seat). Please tell me what you think.

I really hope you are kidding. I don't know how you even fit into a small toptube like that, and then to buy a whole new bike after spending nearly $850 on it has got to be the dumbest thing you could do. Just buy a new frame.

The Fury is ok, for a race bike. It's aluminum, which isn't as strong as chromoly.

5"10 and a 20" TT here, it's not THAT uncommon.

It is pretty uncommon. Stem length makes a big difference to me though. I can go down to a 20.2 inch frame comfortably with a longer stem, but the same frame with say an Elementary stem makes it a bit uncomfortable.
