Title: 1980 DB. DBII or Senior Pro?
Post by: greenlantern on April 09, 2007, 02:08 AM
I was wondering what model bike this is? I know its a 1980 s/n 0G0993, but Im confused on whether its a diamond back II or a senior pro. Im trying to find out so I can buy the right stickers for it. What colour stickers for this bike? Obviously, the stickers on the bike in the pic's are wrong. Thats how I bought it.   Thanks

Been consulting the oracle and this is not a Silver Streak as they came out in the summer of 81. 

Depending on the length of the top tube it will either be a Pro or a senior pro

It's about 19" T/T length

Sounds like a Pro and it should have red decals on, go to BMXMuseum.com as they have a few examples of them in their museum
