that DK bike in the for sale section, that you were looking at
should be fine for some 'light' street use.
personally i've grinded my KHE stylus on plastic grip taped
Alchemy pegs, and the only damage i noticed was the grip
tape was rubbed off the bottom of the peg.  i weigh 50 lbs less
than you so keep that in mind.

i appreciate all the help im getting seeing as i joined not even 12 hours ago. my main squeeze right now that im thinking bout buying is the dk opsis 2010. just didnt know if i had to keep it on the ground

160 pounds here. I got the old Signal, with a st martin champagne 2 fork and KHE swiss miss bars. stock DK Pegs, demolition zero rims radial laced to N4 front and geisha rear.

never felt it wasnt strong enough. would i ride street daily on it? no.
but its never let me down. gotten up to 7 or 9 feet of air and its held up fine.

knurling is all gone, but otherwise the pegs are great.

Would i ride street on any other flat frame? only the strowler and that sunday frame... nothing else.

sorry brah theres only 1 Tim Knoll brah
