- A short video about my 86 strike zone with some history of the bike and the man who it was made for... Mike Dominguez . Old school Bay Area beat by yung koolade. Production assistance by Dan Tha Man
I remember 1987 with that bike my grandfather bought me one in San Diego California I took that back to Dallas Texas
I still have mine.
87 was the best FN year ever.
Mike along with Craig Grasso were my heroes in middle school in the late 80s. Mike did the 900 before Matt Hoffman in the 80s.
Good show.
Sweeeeeeeeeeet bike 😊
I had the DB hot streak in the green colorway. awesome video dude!
I got the 87 in mint condition
Great video, great bike.
I had the green diamondback. It was an amazing bike I took it everywhere
Awesome. I had an 87' back in the day. Blue one. Sure wish I had it now. I remember putting some of them octagonal Dyno pegs on there lol and I believe I changed the brakes (at least the rear) to those big Odyssey Pitbulls. Good times back then riding, I wish my old joints and body could handle it now lol.
bro!!! I had an 87 Dominguez in the magenta ….damn i miss that bike….anyone remember woody itson and his cherry pickers ? lol man i miss those days
I wanna do a magenta one!!! Woody is really cool and usually responds to fans on Facebook
@@eccentrickustomcollective7808 DO YOU REMEMBER THE SEAT ON THE 87--IT HAD A ROLLER ON THE BACK OF THE SEAT!!! NOBODY SEEMS TO REMEMBER IT?
Mike D was my favorite rider as well and wow what a shocker when he went from Hutch to Diamond Back!! His metal flake blue Trick Star was always my favorite bike, but this one is pretty cool too! Thanks for the vid and the history, I always wondered the difference between the 86 and 87 models of the Strike Zone, thanks for clarifying
Big Bob. Forgot the dude that did one hand one foot x up kick turn. Haro team . 😊
I want the grey strike zone with the black mags and white tires. The one he rode.
My fav rider was Wilkerson.
Great video! Mike D was one of my favorite riders too! I’m restoring my 86 strike zone now. Just need to find my breaks and levers. Wanted to re paint but decided on keeping it OG with scapes on it ha Nice to see other DB guys!
I use to have one. Someone gave it to me it was almost complete except the tires,rims and crank
Great video Ben
I had that exact bike new in 87 but mine didn't say Mike on it
You need to get some lugs on that 66', don't want those 5 spokes falling off....
Bad ass video brother! I have a 1987 Strike Zone in Magenta that I am doing a reno to right now. Dad bought it for me in 87 and I have had it ever since. Did you just reno this bike ?
Thanks for the love! I restored this bike about 2 years ago. It’s the second time I built it up. Wanted to get as close to original as possible this time around
@@benhulburt4931 No problem! Can you share what you have done to do the reno? I have bleached my mags and they look really good now but I found some cracks at the hubs which I hear is normal for this mag rim. Also I have to get new tires for it due to tires being dry rotted. Did you get new tires? If so what kind and where from? Anything you could share would be awesome!
Ok, so i've been looking back at the old days and trying to find video and photos of Mike D when he use to ride for Hutch. For me, it seemed like that was the era when he was King. (Just before Josh White, Joe Johnson and Matt Hoffman etc). But there is very little content out there showing that he was ever with Hutch. My question is, why is that? Is there a reason for that? Am I missing something? Bad blood? Litigations?
In my opinion I think Hutch didn’t have the advertising dollars the DB’s, Haro’s and GT’s did. And back then ad revenue turned into magazine coverage!
Good morning bro, can you make me pray... I have a Mike Dominguez frame and fork in Mexico... I just want to know if the towers for the rear brake are removed? And if they can be replaced by modern ones?
You could remove them for caliper style brakes if like. Or find the correct Suntour rear brakes that mount directly to the 990 mounts these bikes came with.
I am trying to restore my 86 Diamondback now. I would like to know where I can get decals. An help would be appreciated. Even if it is just a PDF or jpeg file. I believe that it was a cool streak model.
I bought mine off ebay
Hey Ben....Can you share what you have done to do the reno? I have bleached my mags and they look really good now but I found some cracks at the hubs which I hear is normal for this mag rim. Also I have to get new tires for it due to tires being dry rotted. Did you get new tires? If so what kind and where from? Anything you could share would be awesome!
I got my tires from bmxguru.com since they were rotten.
@@benhulburt4931 what brand model and size were you able to get? Those look like the old cheng shins that were on mine originally with a brownish/tanish side wall.
@@benhulburt4931 Are they a Kenda K55 1.75? If that is what they are how do they look? The original size was a 2.125 and I can't fine anything that size in white.
So I have a question I have a diamondback blue coolstreak but I cant find any info I believe all is OG but its been outside so I believe it has work odd hb have been painted thank u just dont know how to tell if it a Dominguez or not any advice
The Dominguez models all had rear standers and fork standers. The mike d hot streak did not have the top tube platform though, that was reserved for the strike zone only. Bottom line though, if you have built in standers on a 86-88 DB you have a mike d (or woody itson if the bike is an 88)
I got the blue on for sale . Just needs tires and new cables. 900$
Drop me a pm like to see it would love one of these in collection
