[QUOTE="adamsredlines, post: 4177503, member: 40561"] Taking some trips down memory lane here, the year is 1998 and I set my eyes on this beast and had to have it. Parents came through for Christmas and it was the BEST CHRISTMAS EVER. This was my first "bike shop bike". I got into jumps and some basic "flatland" tricks and rode one of these EVERYWHERE. One weekend, was doing a barspin and being that it's more of a BMX bike than a trick bike, it didn't have a Gyro and it spun one too many times, got sideways and I ate the deck. Landed full weight on the front peg, ripped my leg open and to this day I have a scar that looks like a huge centipede all the way across my shin from them sewing it back up. My buddy said it looked like lasagna inside the peg and he got to clean it out as I took a ride to the emergency room. I still wanted to do tricks, so "upgraded" the next Christmas to a Haro. It was a cool bike, and "better", but the Dyno was always my favorite. To make the upgrade, I had to chip in which requires me to sell the Dyno and put it towards the Haro. Anywho, been wanting another and had been eyeballing one in Iowa on Marketplace for months....and took a detour on the way home from Thanksgiving and picked it up. I gotta find them, but when I sold my original, I kept the pegs from it...so they will get installed here and hung up in my "man cave". [ATTACH type="full"]435472[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
