My 1985 Dyno D30 Project
I got this bike last year from a good friend of mine who said he wasn't into freestyle bikes. Thanks JohnnyO!
It had D30 F&F , GT Pro bars and some OG white coaster brake Skyways.
I planned to build it to ride it and was going to use the coaster brake Skyways.
Then I got it painted (the first time) and the OG Skyways looked yellow compared to the frame. I have a brand new set of white freewheel skyways for another build I'm doing, but it may go a different direction now, so I decided to use the bright white Skyways.
Now the Dyno Summer Buildoff comes along and I got my but in gear. Then "Spring Brake" came along and I need to get this done! 
The tear down.
First paint job.

Re: My 1985 Dyno D30 Project
I still don't have a headset, or cranks or bb. I dont know what I'm doing in the way of cranks yet. I want OG 3 piece, but my budget says new 3 piece. I can always change them out down the road.

Re: My 1985 Dyno D30 Project
But I agree on the pedals. Get some freestyle pedals and maybe some Primo Powerbite cranks. Can't wait to see finished product. Good luck with your build

Re: My 1985 Dyno D30 Project
Finally got my frame back today. After him charging me 50% more than his original quote, the first paint job sucked! There were bare spots with no paint and most of the clear was dry and orange peel. I went to pick it up today and he wanted even moremoney for fixing his bad workmanship. WTF! 
So I have the frame back and was told to never go in his shop again, He may have been concenrned that I would actually put the frame where I said. Do not go to Stoli's Autobody in Orange, MA. His work is crap and his bussiness practices are worse.
On with the build.

Re: My 1985 Dyno D30 Project
After a few hours of sanding and polishing, I felt it was good enough to put on the decals.
Sorry the pictures suck, cameraphone. 
I still need to find a black headset and figure out my cranks.

Looks great with the decals on it!
I got a black Dyno seat I ain't using... 
Would match those grips nicely...

Re: My 1985 Dyno D30 Project
It's not "Mint" or "Nos" though... 
Not sure it would go good on that pretty bike of yours.

Old style or new?
This is the newer 90's version
Or like the one on this 85?

Re: My 1985 Dyno D30 Project
Thanks for the offer. I have a new Dominator for it, but would have passed on it for an 80's Dyno seat in black for sure.
