hello!
just picked up this diamondback and i cant seem to find a serial # database to figure out the year.
can anyone help? i picked up a looptail raleigh rampar to build and i was gonna use this diamondback as a donor for the project. the more im looking at this db i feel bad wanting to part it up :lol: . looks like i may have 2 new projects :wink:

Going to http://www.OS-DB.net should answer the questions you have for just about any Diamondback

i couldn't find much on the number but i think its safe to say early 90's by the frame style but im just guessing.
check the rear dropouts head tube bottom bracket for any numbers diamond backs were manufactured by several companies and this will help me decipher the year a bit more.
so its tough to say outright without the proper serial but i agree its most likely early 90's.
i'll keep digging see what i can come up with

looks like a "k" or an "x" under the label overlap. this is a close up of the bottom tube by the bottom bracket
