Diamond Back gussets
« on: August 12, 2008, 03:38 PM »
Really dont know how to start this thread without sounding like a Adam01, i have fallen in love with the Gussets on DBs. I never had one bitd, never built one and until recently never wanted one and never had 3 nos ones in me loft. Does anyone share my feelings for DBgussets or has uneasy thoughts about any other little details on bikes ?.
Just needed to get this off my chest before i do anything silly, am i a wrong un ?

hey DB250F. i got to admit, yes i do love the gusset on a DB as i think there is no other bike with it, its just a shame they rust on the inside of the gusset. other touches i like on bmx's has got to be Hutch when the stamp 'Hutch' on te rear brake bridge  :smitten:

 :) At least when you see a DB you,know what it is straight away.As for JMCs built in seatclamp,look at a lot of current new school bikes...
