Finding a bicycle serial number
Vintage Diamondback Bmx Serial Numbers
Most bicycles have their serial number engraved beneath their bottom bracket, but sometimes serial numbers are found in other places. Here are some examples of where and what to look for:
The bottom bracket Beyonce heaven mp3 download waptrick. (where serial numbers are typically located) is circled.
A serial number on the underside of a bottom bracket.
Another serial number beneath the bottom bracket, aligned parallel to the frame.
Some Schwinn bicycles have the unique identifying number (their serial number) on the head tube. This is on the front of the bike.
A serial number located on a rear dropout. Some BMX bikes and a few Schwinn bicycles place the serial on the rear dropout. On older Schwinns there are numbers stamped on both the drive side and non-drive side rear dropouts; the one on the non-drive side dropout is the serial number.
Some bikes have multiple serial numbers.2When adding a bike to the Index, it's best to enter all the groups of numbers and letters separated by spaces.
Hopefully you can find the serial number on the bicycle you're looking at -email [email protected] you're having trouble.
Searching serials on Bike Index
Diamondback Bmx Ebay
Astute graphics plugins. Finding bicycles by serial number on Bike Index is a critical part of our functionality. When searching for a serial number, use our serial search bar - it's the second bar on our search form.
We've done a few things to make it more likely that you'll find the bike you're looking for.
- Certain numbers and letters are difficult or impossible to distinguish between (e.g. 0 and O, S and 5). We treat all these numbers the same way - a search for
005LLL
will match a bike with the serialOOS111
. - We split bike serials up by spaces and store each separately. If you see multiple numbers on a bicycle - such as in the photo of the Look bike above - try searching for just one of the numbers at a time. Searching for either
M4106I9CA1
or200910427-2A
will find the bike. - We do close serial matching - bikes with serial numbers that are close to the serial you entered are shown below the matching results under the heading 'Serial Numbers Close to ..' - given a search of a serial number with a couple numbers/letters that are different or missing.
- We do not currently do partial serial searches. If you search for
1234
, you will only find bikes with serial numbers of1234
and serials close to that - not a bike with serial number of12345689
.
- Okay, fine, somaybethere are a few bikes without serial numbers, but this is rare and typical only on hand made bikes or really old bicycles.↩
- In this picture200910427-2Ais a manufacturer number and not a serial number. However, to make bikes as easy as possible to find, we'd love it if you entered all numbers you encounter.↩

Why do you see some 84's with the large gussets and some with the small? Are the ones with the large gusset built in 83 for 84 release?
The ones with the smaller gusette are the factory team super vipers or (pacer 500) wich sounds gay thats why they changed the name to SV.The 84 viper is a well respected frame in the BMX world won lots of races. They wanted a lighter frame during 84 so they went with the SV. If you want a DB Any viper is the one to have for a reasonable price. But the better parts you put on any bike will make it lighter any way.
That's not entirely correct, DB introduced the small gussett in 1983 with the introduction of the Formula One and it had nothing to do with Team riders. It was simply a re-development born out of improving geometry and weight. DB dropped the name of the Pacer due to sales and blamed it on the 'name' they used. The Pacer was originally meant to be the replacement for the Silver Streak,..moving forward it because the Super Streak,...which again was dropped and the name Silver Streak returned later on. There's a good read here http://www.os-db.net/content.php?337-Si … eplacement
The VM serialised frames are way before Akisu stated manufacturing the Diamond gussett frames of 1982 onwards and pre-date the original Pro of 1979.

Hey guys,
I just got this Diamondback off of Craigslist for 50 bucks and wanted to know if anyone could help me find out what model and year it is. It does not have any decals to help me with that, the only decal is the Diamondback one. It has all Deore DX components with the shifters being thumb shifters. It is in great condition but a little big for me so I am going to switch all the components on my Trek to this and vice versa and ride my Trek. Check out the pics and let me know what you think.
Serial number is U00534969
Thanks
