Old School Diamond Back BMX


    We are currently re-adding all the information from the old website, all of which should be back very soon - in the meantime if you have any queries please check out the forum.

    Welcome to Old School-Diamond Back which is aimed towards referencing the Diamond Back BMX period 1977 to 1986

    Dedicated to the great Sandy Finkelman who sadly passed away in 2005, his memory and vision live on in one of the most iconic names in BMX.

    I hope you find the site useful, simple to understand and more importantly, beneficial. Much of the information has been sourced from contacts, the Internet, marketing material and some just plain old logic. Where possible we'll attempt to keep the information factual and accurate, but if you observe any irregularities, do not hesitate in contacting us through the forum where we'll be more than willing to discuss any information stated.

    The specifications detailed are based on official literature, though in somes cases the part may differ. This could be down to irregularities in the brochure picture or parts being replaced/updated. If this is the case I've added any relevant information in the 'Additional Information' at the foot of each model page.

    Over time there will be added reviews of Diamond Back's history from the very people associated with them, moreso the 'riders' that inspired that generation and beyond.

    Looks like a Silver Streak from the dropout thickness. But pics can be deceiving. As Frosty said, the dropout thickness is the key. What's the serial? (inside non-drive side dropout). Go to last post

    Interesting colour, I'm thinking that's been sprayed unless the old eyes are deceiving me. Go to last post

    Nice - that is an early '82 Senior Pro - would not have the "Leverage Ratio" dropouts. Cool. Are they all original decals??? Wow.

    What's the serial on the red one - looks to be a '79 or '80 "Large... Go to last post
