1990 Diamond Back Axis XT

gorillus

Retro Newbie
Picked up this Diamond Back Axis XT the other day, it seems to be a 1990 but can’t find too much info for that year? Has anybody got a 1990 catalogue?

Specifically looking for info on quad butted prestige if any other bikes from that era used that tubing?

Pretty happy with it as it’s mostly stock, has full xt with an m735 derailleur.

Very nice. Pretty sure you are right with the year due to the curved fork legs. I've got the same year but the DX model, again with curved forks. I think I have seen a 1990 catalogue, it might have been one of the retro bmx websites. When I get some time I will have a look.

Nice bike but the seat needs Viagra
