Bike looks great man, don't worry about those who had a sip of HATERADE and bash you on it. That Diamondback theme probably did looks the best for it. Sure looks better than a GT or those other fad companies out. I also like it you put together the bike with basically bargain bin diamond back parts. I will like to share with you some pictures of my christmas present for my younger sibling.

I have made just last year with his 1999 Diamondback Assault EX. Basically I tried to find all the parts that was from 1998 to 2000 bmx parts and make it as cheap as possible yet look just like the 1999 Diamondback Assault Team which his idol racer Robert McPhearson has raced and give it a little twist to it. Boy, let me tell you finding these midschool parts were a bit tough and was a lot of digging through bargain bins in local bike shops and attic digging for some of my old parts too.


some giant mountain bike seat for 15.00 in a Bargain bin.
ox industries sprocket, dead company circa of 1999. rare Profile race crank circa of 1999

Standard strip bars with diamondback sticker. I had the bars laying around and the stem was a Powerlite P-nut
Shimano Deore, with Avid brake lever these were found in a bargain bin.


Again, nice job on the bike.
