A retro looptail frame design and throwback Robot graphics give the Legend a nod to DK’s early days.
“Legend” is not a term to be taken lightly and we aren’t making small talk with the DK Legend 26”. It’s a big bike with big goals: To be ridden hard and ridden frequently. This year, we moved back to classic chrome and added a pad set that really makes this thing jump. The throwback looptail frame stays to give a nod to 70’s BMX design with a stable, comfortable stance, while the specs are performance minded without blowing the price. 26” double-wall alloy rims are mounted with grippy 26 x 2.1” tires for a smooth and comfortable ride. For stopping power and wheelie control, a V-brake handles the tasks. Whether you want to rip hard, roll fast, or just cruise around, the Legend has your back.
