They are still in business, well at least they are in canada, but they don't make that frame anymore. I'd say it's probly around 3 or 4 years old. I'm hoping to get a Mutiny Captain by the end of the season.

The only thing that you should cut on your bike should be your seatpost, unless your like Prozakk and had to weld together 2 seatposts and still want a higher seat.

I wouldnt even cut Slams if i had 'em

It's a stock Ody Jim's Beam, thank you.

Did you cut them?

Im not going to cut mine, unless it takes me more than 2 days to get my X-ups down again (i would be going from 24.5" bars to 28"...)

CMcMahon 05-10-06 03:32 PM

X-ups are easier with wider bars, so it shouldn't take you that long. 28" is a bit too wide for me; 26.5" is what I've got my Beringer Lights at right now, and I think that 27" would be fine.

Yeah, i think i will cut them a bit, 26" or 27" sounds good...

But ill see when i get them...

CMcMahon 05-10-06 03:45 PM

I can barely even do x-ups with skinny bars. The last time I tried, I was riding my friend Johann's bike while mine was at the powdercoaters. 7.25" tall, 25" wide bars with only about 8* of backsweep led to me not being able to get the bars unclicked.

Not very fun.

I have trouble with my freinds bars (Fly Moscas cut to like 22", there like scooter bars, and he runs em chicago style, becuase his stem slips...) but i have no trouble with my S&M Mediums...24.5"

But i want bigger bars..

CMcMahon 05-10-06 06:32 PM

Oh, I used to have no trouble. I had 24" wide Castillo bars back in the day. But once you get used to tall, wide bars, it becomes way easier to crank your x-ups around... with the disadvantage that you try to crank them just as far and hard on other people's bikes, leading to tweaked wrists and locked crosses.

No cutting. I use lock-on grips, so my hands reside about 1/2" from bar edges anyway.

seriously, you shouldnt be proud of a Diamondback.
and by the way, i really doubt that the frame weighs 3.2lbs because my friend had that bike and it was sooooo heavy

Fly Bikes90 05-13-06 09:41 AM

i ride a standard 250-s ox platnum frame, with pitchforks, profile cranks, mosca bars, s&m redneck light, primo pro mix cassette hub with 22-8 gearing... *****es

plus like there is no frame that accully weights that much unless its a very expansive race frame. plus like the lightest frame that ment for freestyle is a eastern grimreaper it weighs like 4.5 pounds.
