diamond back response.

[a.davis12]

Hi everyone,
I've found a "diamondback response sport" in the local classifieds for reasonably cheap. it comes with full stx running gear and looks to be in good condition. so my question is, is this frame worth getting?

 

[Pickle]

In short, yes.

I used to race the model up, the DB Response Elite (Manitous, LX and XT).

The frame angles are spot on creating a beautifully handling bike.

Buy it and enjoy it.

If it's your size then go for it, as Pickle says.......great handling bikes.

here's the relevant catalogue page.

There is one thing for sure... If it still has reflectors on the wheels it has had an easy life and not ridden off road.

Nice find mate

Cheers,

original tyres!
am i right in thinking thats a 1" head tube?
also what a reasonable price for the bike? they want ~$160 aud (80 gbp) which when i think about it isnt that cheap.

 

[chaser]

I'd snatch their hand off at 80 quid mate!
