Ever since we got the first look at DK’s 2016 race cruisers, we’ve been waiting anxiously to get a peek at the more “freestyle-y” Cygnus cruiser.
Well, the wait is over.
The 24″ Cygnus comes in two color ways: Red/Black and Black/Gold.
What’s new this year?
The Cygnus gets an upgrade in the handlebars department.
Translation: bigger bars!
Sporting a healthy 8.25″ rise and 28″ width….these bars reflect how most folks are setting up their new school 24s these days.
Other spec is pretty much the same as previous years with the exception of the new parts brand, Wise, getting the nod for things like rims, brakes, stem, cranks, etc.
Back to the colorways
The Black/Red color way is very cool…a black fade to a dark red (You might call it “burgundy-ish“.)
The Black/Gold colorway is also very cool. If you appreciate that old school vibe you’re really going to dig the gold rims (and bars) on this version.
If these pictures have piqued your interest, go start bugging your DK dealer now. These should be dropping at the tail end of February.
