Millsm- Nice find there. thanks for posting it. Makes me appreciate the axis even more. I remember bitd how long i stare at these types of ads.

Yes, please... :D

I agree the geometry of this one is really nice very agile. I've Been hunting for a '91 stumpy too.

Re: My '91team has the alternate color. The yellow and pink are really neon, but the blue is not neon from what I can tell. Almost close to the 1999 cdale f3000 team blue. Here's a reference picture.

Yeah, these kind of bikes are really hard to come by here, that's why when it showed up, I didn't mind driving late at night just to pick it up as soon as it was posted. I really like diamond backs bitd specially the paint job.

Thanks for the info. Now I know its a standard length.

Yeah, I personally like the color too, and nowadays neon is getting so popular. Millsm- may I know the handlebar length?

Hello there! I would like to share my most recent find. It took a while but finally it showed up on our local classifieds. It's in fairly good condition (fair price too), few paint chips and scratches here and there from storage, but nothing major. I tested it this afternoon, it rides really...

Re: Re: I have rm17s too on my team (canadian issue) I was quite surprised on the value posted on ebay. full neon colorway is the way to go 8)

Max- thanks for the reference pic, the gold paint looks stunning. I'm planning to get this ride ready most likely next spring, but I'm thinking twice about the girvins...if they look ok on a sex too.

Based on the rear suspension on the 1995 catalogue, it's a sex too... What I don't get is why it was (allegedly) stripped and parts replaced. The oem parts seemed to be very good. I checked every nook and cranny, and I can't see any trace of the old paint. According to mombat timeline, the...

The rear suspension still holds air. It's a marzocchi a-25 right? I have no idea how much pressure I should put. Is it the same with the headshok?

From what I see, it looks like it was a raw finish from the start or they did a good job stripping the paint. Then putting custom decals. Is there a way to tell if the paint was stripped?

I regularly monitor our local ads here to find some retro goodies, and it really shows how effective those magazines are, most of the bikes being sold (for an upgrade) are only up to 4 years old fs with very low miles. :( fun and more earth friendly, retro is the way to go!

Hi, I got this ride recently at a very reasonable price, I would greatly appreciate any additional info about it. Most of the parts seems to be the same period but I'm not entirely sure if this was sold as a whole bike or was built. The frame decals seems to be the same age of the frame. Here...
