Awesome bike,the chrome is sick.If it was my bike i would get me some boss cranks and ride it.

if boss made a square crank i would have went with them. i tried to match everything to the chainstays, thats why i have those rims, cranks and even the elf bars with rectangle cross bar. anything thats welded by boss is killer.

us_boss2 · 2010-08-11 3:56am

I understand.i said that because boss cranks come on the dirtwerx's

rydah · 2010-08-11 6:09am

do you have any pictures of a complete dirtwerx. the teachnique cranks were just laying around. do you know what handlebars came on these bikes.

pjcruiser · 2010-08-11 6:50am

I don't believe they ever came as a complete, only frame fork combo. Here is a test of one and Leary built up the bike for them to test.

us_boss2 · 2010-08-11 11:53am

I remember see in the buyers guide mag two different dirtwerx complete bikes but never seen any

rydah · 2010-08-12 12:56am

pjcruiser that is a killer ad, thanks so much. i finally got to ride this bike on the track and its sweet. its really fast down the straights. i just have to get use to the really low frame and seat. my other race bike is an airbourne miss beehaven and its a lot taller then this bike.

cooly, cannot wait to see your build when its done and good luck on finding the forks. they seem to kinda hard to find.

Dam I had that same magazine back in the late 90's. I love this bike because I like chromoly, and I used to see Harry rip at the Canyon Country track all the time. You have the best DW buddy. I hope to make mine similar to that.

Like most Dirtwerx owners, Im looking for a fork, chain guide and sticker kit as well.

Its done. Check out my DW cruiser. I also have a pic of the OG DW bars that you were inquiring about.
