Product Description

Tree roots, rocks, bumps - whatever is ahead in the trail, the big wheels of the Diamondback Overdrive will keep on rolling. The 29'er butted aluminum frame is paired with an SR Suntour XCT 100mm travel fork . 24 gears controlled by SRAM X-4 shifters and rear derailleur allow you a multitude of gears to choose from and the double wall rims will be sure to keep you going down the trail. When it is time to stop rely on the Tektro Novela mechanical disc brakes. Granted, the Overdrive will not do all the work for you, but it will sure make your job easier.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great looking bike, decent components, fair price. February 14, 2012
The Overdrive 29er looks tough. Huge tires, big front shock, disc brakes and very black. For my taste, it could even be blacker. I'd love to get rid of the fat white stripe on the top bar.

It's a comfy ride. I'm 6" (32' inseam) and got a large, which feels comfortably big. It'll be my ride for an upcoming XTerra Triathlon on trails, but mostly it's going to be a city cruiser, to which it seems very well suited.

Also, the price is very right. It was the best 29er I found, with disc brakes, around $500.

Really the only drawback are the gears. They work, but not beautifully, and they don't inspire much confidence to ride hard.

Other than that, be prepared for some assembly. It's a nice little DIY project and comes with useful instructions and tools. Still I needed a few other tools and some Googling to get it right, especially to adjust the derailleurs.

Have fun. I'm off for a ride!

Size Name:20-Inch/ Large|Amazon Verified Purchase
You get what you pay for, $550 to my door I got a lot with this bike. The bike is solid, well built, perfect for the rocks I find around flagstaff. I love this bike and would not hesitate recommending it to someone looking for a solid entry level bike that will still leave some money in the bank. You will need to do some basic assembly, not difficult if you know what your doing. If you have never made any tuning to your bike in the past, you may or may not need some help. All in all the bike is very easy to assemble. Mine did not come with any tools that I could find, so be prepared to break out your tool box if needed, a standard multi bike tool should have everything you need and you should have one if your buying this bike. Shipping wieght was 44lbs, the bike is 33lbs assembled, I have the 20inch /large.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great bike for the price! July 31, 2012
Size Name:18-Inch/ Medium|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is not a department store bike. if you are looking at this and a $200 Wal-Mart bike buy this if you want a tough durable bike. This is the same frame DiamondBack uses on the $2k pro model. all you have to do is upgrade the components as you grow as a rider and this bike will grow with you. I love mine. it was easy to assemble and tune and rides great. just remember to re-tune it after about 2 weeks since the cables will stretch a bit at first and it will need readjustment.

This is a GREAT bike for the price though!

4.0 out of 5 stars Best benfits cost
This is a beautiful and strong bike. I bought 2 large sizes and we take some difficult riders. Because it is a 29er, it is less agility then 26er, but is good to more velocity.
