Vélo BEACH CRUISER

Dr Lee and Alain have met thanks to the We Are club. Let’s say that they found each other...

Together, they have brainstormed to build the coolest bike that every teenager was dreaming of (As Alain...) in the late 70’s. The famous double seat bike that skateboarders were also riding inside the Los Angeles empty swimming pools; the Stingray. On the top of that, they added a pure beach cruiser to complete these twins bikes. The brief was simple as usually; Green, stainless steel and gold... The perfect March LA.B Combo.

THE MAKING OF A DAPPKING CYCLE

All one of a kind refinished cycles built by hand to the highest level of style performance and integrity.

Each Dappking cycle is built with unique vintage frame and parts, found all over the world, classic old road bikes , mostly Italian for the 50’s, 60’s, 70’ and sometimes 80’s.

From there, Dr Lee stripped the bikes down and put them through a special plating and powder coating, refinishing them with a beautiful style and design.

With vision and passion, we are able to bring a new life to our bikes.

DARREN LEE

Darren Lee grew up in San Diego, California. His first true bike building adventure occured in junior high school metal shop class where he designed fabricated and built his first monoshock dirt bike by hand from scratch. Early on Darren’s skill and intrigue for bikes made him a big hit with kids in his neighborhood, swaping parts and restoring bicycles for all comers out of his family’s garage. He loved the idea of taking something old and bringing it back to life, reviving it’s functionality. Les années passent et, où qu’il aille, il trouve toujours un vieux vélo de route vintage à restaurer. Upon his return to Los Angeles, navigating through his journey in life Darren was now pursuing another dream as a singer songwriter music composer. While back in Los Angeles he stumble upon an unbelivable story about Marshall Major Taylor, he’s considered to be the greatest cyclist to ever live. Hearing his story and seeing the old photo’s of Marshall on his bikes put Darren in a state of shock. It had a profound spiritually moving effect on him that would cause a rejuvenation in his passion for building bikes. He restored an old vintage 1960’s Italian Pinarello road bike for personal use and once friends saw this beautiful refinished work the orders started coming in. Word of mouth brought a growing list of customers interested in his designs. This energy and his renewed passion lead to the birth of DK Cycles. DK Cycles are one-of-a-kind bicycles that range in style from standard restorations to luxury vintage refurbishments. All are highly functional machines, handcrafted for outdoor durability but also with custom features and add-ons that speak to the preferences of each individual customer.
