Diamondback - DH8 factory team prototype

This is one of the Diamondback Europe 44Racing Rockstar factory Diamondback DH8 team race bikes.

These have only recently gone into production and are now available to buy in Europe. We have been running these in the prototype and production versions since August 2012 with no issues at all and have had great feedback from all of the riders. I know that it looks similar to a Commencal, but they are different :)
