bikeboy said:pardon my aussie ignorance, but what's a CHUCK (or a DC for that matter) ???
I'm guessing it's a type of shoe/boot?
cheers

LOL. No worries mate. Chuck(s) is/are short for "Converse All-Stars" a real common shoe over here for guys who tend to ride/build these kind of bikes.
They're super comfy but they have very little padding or rubber on the bottom. When kicking bikes with a smaller rod type kick start repeatedly...as we do on these ol' bastards you get a real soft spot on the bottom of your foot.
The "DCC Chuck-start" eliminates that.
DC is another brand of shoes popular with skateboarders (as are chucks.)
I prefer Chucks to DC's because DC's tend to make my feet look "bloated" because they're thick with padding and such for comfort when skating.
