Diamondback XSL Trail ‘05

February 23rd, 2005 by Mike

Blue Collar picked up a Diamondback XSL Trail today. It was a tester bike at the Interbike show. The bike just looks fast with a bright red paint job. It’s full supension with a great combination of parts. I’m going to take it over to Bikes Unlimited at lunch and have them get it working like a well oiled machine. Can’t wait to get my butt in the saddle. Here are some specs on the bike…

    You know, that bike is a direct decendant of my DBR V-Link Pro that I got in ‘96. It’s a great bike, (for a 26 incher!), and I think you’ll really like yours!
