Customer Comments
Love the Serene, cushiony comfort seat; the best handlebar grips ever, handlebars adjust three ways depth, height, and angle. I sit upright like on a cruiser bike. Love that part that there is so much clearance when standing over the bar, makes getting on and off the bike so easy. I am 5′3″ with a 29″ inseam and have the x-small/13″ and have the seat set as low as possible, top of seat is 32″ from floor, there is 3″ of bar but it does not go any further than that due to a sheath that is there, it will raise up another 4″, so the seat height can be adjusted up to 36″ from the floor. I have not had a bicycle since I was 15 so I really tried to figure out exactly what I needed and what size and finally went with my inseam as a guide, most sites told me I needed a 17″ frame for a 29″ inseam, which would have been way too big for me, and a frame 2″ bigger doesn’t actually mean 2″ taller, bike sizing is confusing. Diamondback’s website recommends you go to a bike shop which is a good idea because each brand is different. I think this bike is ideal for a smaller woman or a child who has outgrown a kid size bike.

The seat and handlebar handles are very comfortable and I like how upright I can sit, great for the back. The front wheel and the seat have easy release, helping you to deter bike thief, if you are planning to lock up your bike outside for an extensive period. I like the fact that it looks and feels like a classic cruiser bicycle but it has multiple speeds and gears, making hills not so terrible. I also like the classic walk through frame. A bike shop told me that it is traditionally so that girls and ladies can wear skirts and dresses. Going for a joyride isn’t only comfortable but charming looking, particularly with a pretty summer dress on.
