there seems to be alot of nice looking as well as some basket cases on the bay...alittle elbow grease for those older rusted up ones and they would look mint!!!

what do you all think???

im thinking there riding the GT craze.....hope on before they too get out of reach!

Dynos have always been popular in my book. I hopped on a long time ago.
On that note, I can say that I sold a survivor 87 D-Tour a few months ago for over $330. I wasn't expecting to get much more than $200 for it. Somebody hit the BIN for BronxStylers 88 Pro Compe for $850? I think it was.

... just stay away from the VFR's and Nitros. The US built Pro Compes/Slammers and the 85/86 US and Japanese built D-30s are the keepers.

Already have! Just received a Detour that's needing a lot of TLC. Got ripped off on a Compe which is what I really wanted, but looks like I'll never see. Which is why I got the Detour.

So far the geometry looks close enough to what I liked about the Compe. Once I get all the parts off of it I'll decide if it's lightweight enough to mess with. I like a light bike.

i have just gotten a blue comp in a trade that is complete and i was debating wether to strip it down and rebuild it i also have a nice dyno air that i have at the powder coaters now as well as the Dyno D-Tour i already have done does anyone have the decals for the D-Tour or Comp? i have a guy locally that will repop them for like 15.00 a set provided it is a REAL clear Picture or if they are nos he will make duplicates of them....let me know here is my first Dyno that Lou repainted for me it is one of my favorite rides...i'll post pics of the blue comp tomorrow

i think dynos are finally getting the repect they been missing on ebay

the prices are finally going up

just wish i had a ton of money when they were cheaper would of picked up more

lol

eh, i dont see the big deal. they look as nice as the rest, but id take a gt or haro over 1 any day; cept maybe a pro compe.

...and I'd take an 85/86 Dyno over a Haro or a GT. Every ******* has an opinion.

im feeling ya RL PAULIE i really like the dyno as a daliy rider cant wait to get the dyno air back and put together....im going to be downloading pick of the blue d-tour now....Rob

My favorite bikes growing up were my Dyno Pro Compes. I rode my friend's Haro Masters, and Sports, and even traded my first Pro Compe to my best friend for his GT PFT for a while but we ended up trading back. I guess they just fit me and my style of riding best. One of the things I liked then and still is that they are not as popular as the GT's and Haro's. Did anyone see any at Rockford?

hmm


i wonder if the guy on craigslist still has that 87 compe..complete...original...in need of resto...for $45.

here is the blue COMP

i would jump on it

if it is close enough

thats what is holding me back from restoring one are the decals for the orignal 86-87? d-tours/comps and such they look so hard to do that i wouldnt even be able to repo them.

well i have a guy that will repop them i just need a clean shot of them...which is almost impossible im gonna see what he thinks of these on this blue comp

My brothers old Dyno:


One I scored last fall:


It appears to be stock except for the wheels.

I thought AJK said he had repro 87 pro compe decals in the works...somebody shoot him an email....

lazy ***!

hey Paulie what other wheel sets would be correct for that blue Comp i have a set of blue Tuff's as well as some 6 star OE Skyway Mags!

compe for $45 sold

Another member sent me this pic for the 88 DTour:


He also had sent me a pic of the 89 Pro Compe Stickers but I deleted his email.

I have some pics of the 88 compe stickers too, but no originals left.

can anyone tell me what year this dyno is? thanks in advance.
mike

About that blue compe... That's got to be an 89 or 90 model year which is a little past my time but I think the later style GT mags would be correct for it. It probably came stock with the rims that are on it though. I know the detours came with the mags.

you damm tease

i had to repost the pics didnt show up

mslayers, that's gotta be a mid-late 90's Dyno. At least later than 94-95.

thanks for the info!
mike

lol you guys kill me with those decal pics....last night i dreamt i was at a flee market and got NOS pft decals!

OK, I got a 90 detour. I don't really care about cromo, trimoly, whatever. I like the geometry.
My deal is this, the frame/fork feel rather heavy, as compared to the D-30 I had BITD.

Could anyone weigh their 85-86 f+f so I could compare? I'm torn between building it up as a daily trick rider or just pawning it off.

Funny bit mne, the other night I dreamed I ran into a kid that had a quadangle 10-speed. I spent a couple hours trying to get it from him without letting him know it was worth anything.

Figuring it was an omen, I spent the next day riding around town in 95 degree heat....but no luck...

does anyone have the D-Tour decals for a 87' dyno????

mslayers,
that's a 98. I sold one I brought to life a while back. here it is, or I mean here it was...

nice chrome i would put some black tuffs on it....rob

old school daddy, is the seat and seatpost original on your former dyno? chainwheel looks a little different also.
mike

I did it up everything original, except the seat post which is a GT laid back, and the chainwheel. I opted for the winged look. The tires are Dyno Hoop Ds which didn't come out until later on I believe. Other than that, she was all stock. I know that when I bought my 96 Compe BITD they sold it with either the drain pipe or the laid back. I chose the laid back, so I would say that either one may have been an option for this model Air. Most believe in the Dyno drain pipe, but I think the laid back looks better. Either way, you can't go wrong. I rescued that frame/fork from scrap, and the rest I aquired. She was a great riding bike. Sometimes I wish I would have kept it. You have a nice piece for sure.

You catch the Dyno bug Lou, or just after the flights? Hudson almost got in there!
