eBay and Craigslist finds

@provenrad:

some things about the diamant-gdr-track frames:

1) seatpost 24cm
2) race frame-geometry
3) tapered seat tube! the seat post had only contact over their length in the seat tube. after them the seat post "is free"! outcome: broken frame
4) production steps: 1st - stitched, 2nd - brazed
5) height of bottom bracket: 26cm
6) chainstay: more than 40cm
7) flat delay- and seat angle

more than 150€ for frame and fork only is a bad ebay-joke!

Very helpful to know - could have been an expensive mistake. I'm out!

it will still go for €300

only unaware kids from small villages without internet conncetions will buy them for more than 150€!

nothing wrong with that----still no good deal----the only headset which can be used on the diamant frames are the headsets of gdr origin, hard to find, bad to ride......

Danke schön Eingang.
Good info too bike-punx..

nope shite, the chainrings are likely to fold under too much pressure, and you can't reolace it.

When riding fixed.
