I had some Diamond Back a similar shape but they were stamped ' Diamond Back Chrome Moly' on the bar that goes down from the crossbar to the stem  ;)   Not sure on the knurling situation though  :D

So basically none the wiser  :LolLolLolLol:

Deffo Diamond Back in style and finish - I also have a set, but they are also stamped so have a really good look on the downtubes in case it's feint. :coolsmiley:

welds and the top look like my woody itsons, but mine seem squarer at the bottom, and its a single knurl too
