This is how it currently looks. 35.6 lbs of goodness. The frame was chromed at this point.

Bought a used small DHR frame. Didn't realize it was spray coated until I started stripping it (originally powder-coated green). After a long battle, I polished and assembled with mostly spare parts from a previous bike.

First iteration of the DHR. That Boxxer fork was only 32mm thick but it was buttery. The replacement 35mm WC fork was actually worse (still is).

After I cased a jump and ruined the wheel, I bought a set of white rims and switched up the color (white accents). Matched the WC fork that I bought too.
