    The DYNO Nitro 24" model was the first 24" DYNO bicycle. The Nitro 24" bike only sold for 3 years 1996-98. It was replaced in 1999 with the DYNO VFR 24".

     The black doesn't bling as much as the colored parts do. Black anodize parts are stealth... black seemed to be the perfect match for this build.
