Oh dear must learn to resist oddities that are always going to get a "what is that thang"?
Just bought the Gold Diamant Thang, pick up tomorrow. At least it's from a fellow kiwi.
How is it? It definitely looks like one of Karl-Marx-Stadt's finest.
The quality of those frames seems pretty low, I think they're down with the Meteor frames in terms of the sturdy gas pipe ranking. The track frames can go for a fortune in Germany though because of their hipster prestige.
One went on the Ebay Classifieds site there for €150 at 11am one Sunday morning while I was living in Berlin, I called at 1pm and the guy said I was about the 10th person he'd spoken to, and was welcome to try and race the others to pick it up. I got there about 15 minutes too late.

Well...the TT could be bent in two too... ;)
Re Diamant at least gaspipe never gives up on you. The German ebay shows artistic cycling bikes too...with track dropouts. Interesting hipsters haven't picked up on them yet...

All I've done so far is bring it into the workshop. It looks ok and has a strange mix of bits some cheap some look a bit less so it doesn't feel too heavy but the scales will tell the real story. For the price it's an interesting enough thing.

There is a 54cm on on eBay UK. Looks much nicer in the original colours.
EDIT: They are acutally the same size.

I don't like it when people repaint and utterly destroy the original paint... I mean black all over... :(

http://www.hubjub.co.uk/images/stories/virtuemart/product/did_chain_silver_1000x6668.jpgNo the item on e-bay is stamped NJS I think it's NOS and may be the older packaging for the Racing Pro model as it 's similar spec and retails around £35 .

That's on YACf, might be worth making an offer. The seller is a nice bloke.

Keep an eye on the seller Vince as I've brought two Izumi ESH chains from them with the second added today ( that's also the second DID chain sold the same way ) . I guess someone on here also landed the Superbe pro 17 teeth sprocket for 7 quid .

Strange mix of parts, but what looks to be a nago (forks for sure, hard to read stamp in seatstay) fixed.
