i grabbed this puppy today. this will probaby be my build off bike.
but whta is it?
i grabbed it because i wanted a looptail BMX.
the stem has "DB" on it and the fork has a diamond cut into it. i guess these are diamond back. the frame is odd lookin'.
any clue guys?

Diamondback for sure, I think it is a viper but not dead sure. Check BMX museum under diamondback and you should find one like it.
 
Dude, get some more pics up of that bike. Looks almost like a Profile frame. Forks and stem could be Diamondback but that frame is something else. The drops resemble either Profile or Tange. I would like to see closer pics of the welds, chainstay brace (if there is one) and get the serials off it too.
 
yeah i did cruise thru bmx museum, but after about a dozen pages of DB and no luck i figured i was on the wrong trail.
it does appear to be a profile frame. maybe '83 to '85.
i cannot find any marking or #s on it.
it's a poorly done rattle can paint job.
the drop-out and braces all look like a profile.
