1977 Diamondback MX
First generation frame and fork. This is 1 of less than 10 known to still exist and 1 of 2 with the original fork.
I am almost done with it. I just installed an original sticker set. I planned on making this totally era correct but decided that was too boring so I went early 80`s custom.
This bike was voted best 70`s bike at the Pacific Northwest BMX show 2010 and 2nd place in 2011!
