Hey , have you seen my post? viewtopic.php?t=332146

Hey maroon! Did you get that 96 Axis Red/blue/silver? How tall are you? And what size did you get? Im also trying to buy one and i would like to understand the vintage geometry of the Diamondbacks!

Re: Re: Hey mill! I really appreciate the pics! Thanks! You have a beautiful bike, i know the "Axis" is top of the line in DB, I would love to own one. I happen to know someone selling the 1996 Axis, the one made for the US market, made out of ritchey tange prestige , do you have the 1996 DBR...

Hi fired! :o that is a cool bike! I really like the smoked color, Im accepting it will be too big for me, its really dissapointing, here in Mexico is very hard to get something good :(

This is my 1990 Mongoose Iboc Sport, This bike got me hooked to the retro Bikes Its around the time John Tomac was racing for Mongoose , he had one in titanium It is a 20" and i feel it is small for me, In a modern mt bike i use 18.5 size

Hello Trek! 20" is too big for me? Because of the geometry of Diamondback? My only “vintage” bike is a 1990 Mongoose Iboc Sport It has shimano exage 300lx group and it is made of tange chromoly db , it has a 20" seat tube lenght, 22" top tube lenght and 29" standover height and it feels really...

Re: Re: Hi Brock! I dont think it is in that good condition as box fresh, you can see it has some corrotion on the chain . The problem is that the bicycle is pretty far from where I am and I would have to pay £20 extra for shipping. I could sell it like you say, but im from México :? That is...

Hey fired! I was planning to take it off roading, but I guess i will have to let it pass :( I started this thread because i know vintage mtb had different geometry , and maybe it was my right size , thanks for your answer

Hey mamadirt! Im able to get one whole 1992 Diamondback apex for £100 , but its too big for me, i believe it is a 22", and im 5'11" Thats my question in my recent thread, i think im gonna have to let it pass :( Thank you very much for your time and answers!

Hi everyone, i am able to get this beauty. A diamondback Apex 1992 Black and green in mint condition. For what I can see in the pictures, even the tires and seat seem to me to be original. The seller doesnt know too much about bicycles, he claims the bike size is 21" but the 1992 DB catalog...

How much exactly is a lot? How much did you pay? Was it for the whole bike or just the frame? Note: im just trying to learn

Hey Bartsince1975, I really thank all your posts and advice, :D I realize it was a mistake not buying the frame right away, i know that now, but the frame has been hanging there about 15 or 20 years,(waiting for me i hope) Im willing to let it sit there for a couple of days more, let it cool...

Re: NOS DUROTEC FORK Here are the pictures, I haven't found any fork like this one

Re: NOS FORK UPDATE I came to take another look around and to try to negotiate the price, and guess what happened? :shock: The old man took out the original fork of the frame! he told me he found it while searching for other stuff It has the same finish, and the same gold chrome. On the...

I know, im pretty sad about it. You say its a lot less of a deal, but you mean it is still a deal???

Re: Re: I dont know, but being a Merlin was another possibility i thought about, I believe Merlin and Marin had 9 digit serial numbers like this one has

Re: UPDATE So I went back to see it again :D i took a scale this time it weights 2090 grams, although I haven't got an answer as how much should it weight to be a good frame, i said, well , i guess its not that much, ill take it, and when I was ready to take out my money the old grumpy...

Re: Re: I can confirm the headset it is 1" , and it has different dropouts like you say, and it also has the seat post opening backwards. Its really disappointing it is not a Sunn :(

I does look similar, but it has different dropouts like you say, but it also has the seat post opening backwards, the top tube its lower than the seatstays, and the cable routing is on the side of the top tube instead of the top. I guess this differences make it another frame , possibly...

I don't know the weight , i didn't buy it :facepalm: but hopefully by tomorrow at this time it will be mine! how much should it weight?? do you know which alpinestars model could it be? thanks
