1984 Diamondback 24

Extremely rare.....Quite possibly the only one left in existance.

This extremely rare Diamond Back cruiser belongs to a friend of mine, The legendary Glenn Rawson. It is in mint condition with the original gold Team stickers. It has no serial number. The ultimate holy grail for all Diamond Back collectors!

So did heever finish building this!? I have a few pictures of my favorite bike and this is one of them.Its funny that i was just looking at this bike earlier today.i would really like to repop one of these.

revcore · 2009-10-19 7:05pm

Glenn still has it hanging up in his shop....He hasn't had time to finish it yet.

LIVE TO RIDE · 2009-10-19 7:39pm

Man what a shame.That bike is a bitchen part of history.I havent seen another one ever.Were these just given to team riders,like the TA was?Im really thinkin of taking a cruiser and actually making one.definetly one of my favorite bikes ever!

revcore · 2009-10-19 7:48pm

Glenn Rawson, The owner of the Diamond Back cruiser was a team rider for Diamond Back Australia and was given this as a replacement for the GT cruiser he was riding at the time...Because he was a Diamond Back team rider his GT was stickered up as a Diamond Back because back then Diamond Back never officially made a cruiser.
To my knowledge it is the only one left (I think there was only ever 3 made) and Glenns one is in mint condition...The drop outs barely have a mark on them and inside the gusset is super clean and has never seen a single bit of rust.
Just knowing it is probably the only one of it's kind left in existence makes seeing it in person such an amazing thing.

That is so bitchen!Thanks for sharing the bike and knowledge behind it!

Roboprop · 2009-11-21 2:42pm

rrordona · 2010-03-09 6:19am

I never knew DB made a cruiser. That is one sweet ride! I can't wait to see it finished if he ever has time.
