It’s been said a million times, but the most talented cyclist typically have their start in BMX racing. Growing up at the track will help you develop the fundamentals to transfer over any type of cycling in the future. We have a world class facility here at Tom Sawyer with some of the nicest people around that are more that willing to help you or your child be successful in the sport.
Okay now that you’re interested in bmx racing let’s talk about the perfect bike to get started. The DK Sprinter featureas a 6061 aluminum frame with 3D dropouts and internal cable routing. To keep things safe and light you will find 100% chromoly forks and bars. An aluminum 2-piece crank transfers all the power to the rear wheel as you snap out of the gate like a pro!
The value keeps getting better as we go here… DK have spec’d sealed bearings in the front hub, rear cassette hub, bottom bracket, and headset! This allows you to travel all over the country without the fear of having a mechanical. You also get double wall rims front and rear just in case you come up short the first time you jump the pro set.
Now for the most important question… “How much does it weigh?” The sprinter comes in at a feather light 22.5lbs! Now that you know every detail of this bike it’s time to take it to the track and learn to fly!
