Hey guys, here's my first build. Not a ton of mods, but I think it looks sick!
The bike is an 04' Diamondback Della Cruz 1.0. It is slightly stretched from the factory, and had a cool springer fork, and double spring saddle. I havent seen any others that are this color. It's almost a gloss olive drab color. The wheels were originally yellow, and looked ok, but black was definitely a better way to go. Looks mean. I'm glad I painted it. I slapped on a set of Electra leather grips with leather fringe, and added some leather fringe to the saddle bumper as well. I also flipped the spring on the springer fork and replaced the original chrome spring with an old racing triple-valvespring from a big-block Ford. 8) Steering is a bit heavy, but rides great, and is a looker(at least to me!). Well, that's it for now, I'm sure it's not done, but I will keep it like this for a while and see if I feel the need to change any thing. I'm already thinking about a set of creme Fat Franks............Later! :wink:
God Bless,
Jeremiah<><
