DK Bicycles is rethinking their approach to product distribution and has built themselves a new website. Check it out!
DK has been in the BMX bicycle business since 1979 trying to provide the best quality BMX parts and bicycles at affordable prices. We have seen many ups and downs in the industry over the past 31 years and have adapted and changed accordingly.
Today’s BMX market has changed tremendously over the past several years and consumers have more options than ever before, forcing us to rethink about the industry as a whole and our place within it.
It is no secret that a few mail order companies have captured a large percentage of the BMX market and this has put a strain on our relationship with our independent bicycle dealers (IBD). In an effort to protect the DK brand and to continue to build our relationships with the bicycle dealers, we are making some drastic changes.
Effective immediately, DK will limit all mail order and online shops in order to continue to offer the best BMX products and to put the control back in the hands of the IBD. As a result, these few large mail order companies will no longer be carrying the DK brand.
Along with our renewed efforts to strengthen our relationships with the IBD and consumer, DK will also keep a strong internet presence through our website dkbicycles.com.
We look forward to continuing to offer the best BMX products and strengthening our relationships with those dealers that support BMX.

I manage a shop that is proud to be selling DK. It is our main brand for completes. To gerald. Dont be afraid to go into that shop and tell the guys there your needs. Show them that it is profitable for them to carry parts. get a job there to help them in the right direction.

Bill, your doing the right thing, our country will not survive unless americans start to make the right decisions. People Helping People is my motto! All we need to do now is start putting americans back to work by BMX Companies to start making more Made In The USA Bmx Bicycles and Parts! Who agrees with me? Lets do the right thing, start a movement, lets take our country back!

This is great. DK just took a huge step in forcing you to support your local scene. If you don't see BMX bikes in your shops regularly, the dudes in charge will probably be happy to get one for you as long as they're a dealer of System Cycle (DK's distributor)

NICE! This is wonderful news. I applaud DK for taking a stand on the side of the local bike shops. I hope more companies follow their lead.
