Diamond Back advice please.
« on: March 18, 2007, 03:55 PM »
Just got a DB F and F of ebay but not really sure what Ive bought.


The gussett tells me its probably and F1 but the brake bridge is different to the other F1's as they seem to have holes going all the way across.  Someone on the museum has a silver streak with no box section which looks pretty similar to this one so I'm getting very confussed now. The serial no. is F4019557.

Can anyone help please.
Thanks
Andy

It aint no F1..
Look on the inside of the rear drop out,
will be either "500" = pacer 500 or "cro mo" = viper/super viper
