very nice....

not many senior pro's left as most get converted into HLT's....

Love a DB

That one young man is Stunning

So is the senior pro the same F&F as a HLT

Love this.

I think the first few months were the same frameset ,, then they did an altered leverage angle on the rear dropouts for the HLT after a few months ..

I think that's what Sparky said about my HLT ,, He saw mine and called it a Mk1 2nd revision

basically about 6 months into production I think

That Diamond back's a beaut , Steve

Where's Sparky when you need him ,, for all the questions

Wasn't the Large Pro the earlier model with the double dropout forks ?

Just to confuse us all a bit more

Cheers for the comments lads

That sounds about right Christian, the large pro had the double drop out forks.

I am sure sparky will be along soon

That is friggin awsome

If i was to change 1 tiny thing then i'd put a chrome seatpost in rather than blue. Only my opinion though.

My first ever proper race bike and i'd love one now.

large pro's are from 79 - 81 and from memory have a longer top tube compared to the senoir pro.
senior pro was the replacement and came in around may ish of 81 from memory, the rear drop was changed after only a few months of production and has a slight downward angle.
