Are you talking road bikes? If that's the case, they weren't being built until 90.

Unless someone on the internet has been playing a long term sick joke, they are unobtainium. I have searched all over for many of the years you mention.

I don't have the 1990 catalogue but I believe that I have a 1990 product list, which at gives all the models, their component groups and prices.

If ever you find you are bored and have an hour, maybe scan it and add to this thread? I have messaged with a few people over the last half year all asking about DB models from '90.

I have access to a 1990 catalog maybe others. I am not sure what you are looking for. Are you asking to purchase catalogs, have catalogs donated, copies? I took a quick look at the link at the bottom of your first post but none of it makes much sense to me, of course I am an old man with not much computer sense, so perhaps that is the problem.

Im making the catalogs easy for cyclists to search with phone software. If you have catalogs from Diamondback and maybe other brands you can scan and send to retrographic.developer@gmail.com I will turn them into a format thats free and accessible for millions of cyclists.

Well, that will save me some work. Sometimes, procrastination pays off.

I found this thread whilst also hunting for DiamondBack catalogues.
I have the 1986 and 1984 DiamondBack catalogues, I have seen the 85 and some of 82.
Appreciate this is a super old thread, but LMK if you're still looking.

Hi ya ... Just wondering if the catalogs were ever posted -- I didn't see any links.
I have acquired a 1984 (I think) Diamondback Trail Streak in really good condition -possibly with all original parts. I've been trying to find a spec sheet on it, all to no avail.
Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated.

I would be very eager to see the '83 and '84 catalogs, I'm interesting in getting a Ridge Runner from those years and I'm curious what sizes were offered and if the geo was specified.
