Diamondback 2013 Recoil Pro 29er Full Suspension Mountain Bike with 29-Inch Wheels (Black, 20-Inch/Large)
The dictionary defines recoil as Inch to spring or come back; react. Inch The Diamondback Recoil takes that definition to heart. Whether it is flying down the wide open trail or making its way through twisty tight single track, the Recoil Comp will react to what is under its tires and then spring back and be ready to take on what comes next. 29 inch wheels. The larger diameter wheel is taking over, and with good reason. The foundation for this is firmly laid with an all-new 6061 T-6 Aluminum Trail frame sporting 4 Inch of travel via the RockShox Monarch R air rear shock (more on this later). The frame uses a machine formed top tube and a butted and formed down tube sharing tubing from our nicer Sortie series. It uses a sealed cartridge bearing pivot and is built around an optimized single pivot design which is the simplest type of rear suspension because there are few moving parts. It consists of a pivot just above the bottom bracket, slightly up on the down tube and a single swingarm to the rear axle. Being that the rear triangle directly attaches to the rear shock, the shock has a more linear spring rate and offers good small bump compliance. Larger wheels are not the only improvement made to the 2013 Diamondback Recoil Pro 29. We've added a RockShox Monarch R air rear shock to compliment the Rock Shox Recon Silver 29 fork. This fork features rebound dampening adjust and a turnkey lock out. The lockout allows the rider to limit the travel to enhance your climbing experience. The Shimano SL-M430 Rapidfire 9-speed shifters control an Alivio front and an Deore rear derailleur. Combined with and the HG30 9-spd Cassette (11-32t) combined with the Shimano FCM-521 9-spd Octalink crankset ( 22/32/44t) give you 24 mountain crushing gears to choose from.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Diamondback Recoil Pro 29er Owners Assessment
The Recoil Pro 29er is smooth, solid, quiet, and comfortable. It shifts crisply, brakes precisley, rolls effortlessly, and glides over the rocks and uneven terrain with the 29" wheels and Rock Shox Suspension. I was concerned about the seat and how comfortable that was going to be. I was again, pleasantly surprised! This bike is an excellent "bang for the buck" spent. For those people who demand quality and don't have a huge budget, this is a great bike for you. I am one well satisfied owner!

Diamondback 2013 Overdrive V 29'er Mountain Bike with 29-Inch Wheels  (Black, 20-Inch/Large)
The bike industry sees fads come and go. Innovation doesn’t always assure success or even relevance. Luckily, the 29er revolution is one that’s here to stay--and for good reason. There’s no denying the rock crawling, root crushing power of a larger wheel. Making the largest of obstacles the smallest of matters is a defining trait of these muddy beasts. By offering decreased rolling resistance, increased traction when cornering and improved ground clearance, one ride upon one of these massive behemoths is sure to sway even the staunchest skeptic. The Diamondback Overdrive packs a punch in terms of value and affordability and takes 29ers to a new level. The improved 2013 6061-T6 Aluminum Overdrive series frame boasts of newly formed top and down tubes, a machined headtube, and forged drop outs with a replaceable derailleur hanger. The Geometry is spot on. The ever so sloping top tube provides ample standover clearance. A 71° head tube angle and a 73° seat tube angle create the perfect XC/trail geometry. The 390mm (15.4 inch) chainstays equate to an extremely snappy rig and the ability to easily get the front wheel off the ground – something that not all 29ers can be so proud of. The Overdrive is a fantastic entry level 29er well balanced between value and performance. The SR Suntour XCT gives you 100mm of travel for the perfect amount of cushion up front. Add to that Disc brakes courtesy of Tektro and you have one of the best in class values for an entry level 29er period.

A few bike issues, but DB coming through to get issues resolved!
I had written a long review about some issues I had with the bike. I said I would send in an update after I spoke to DB today.

Here is the quick recap of my first review:

1) DB could do a better job packaging by adding some sort of cushioning packaging material. May be the cause of the wheel issues below.
2) My front wheel was very untrue
3) My back wheel was slightly untrue (to the point where if this had been the only issue I would have just lived with it)
4) I was shipped the wrong pedals (resin instead of the metal pedals spec'ed on the DB and Amazon website)

Update:

I just spoke to Jason at DB. He called a couple local dealers and got one to true up the wheels at no cost (to me anyway). I'm really happy about this. I was was hoping I wouldn't have to ship parts back and forth to get this issue resolved. I plan on taking it in this afternoon.

I noted to Jason that I got the wrong pedals. He said the specs...

HUGE BANG FOR THE $$$!!!!!!!!!!!
After reading reviews for weeks on all the 29ers out there, i decided to give the Diamondback Overdrive V a shot. I am new to mountain biking. That being said, this bike is amazing. It feels very powerful. The upsized 29" wheels feel like they can take anything you throw at them. Assembly is extremely easy. I also love that Diamondback uses the same frame throughout the Overdrive line, so the pro model has the same frame as the V. I also love that even though the V comes with cantilever brakes, it has the mounts for disc brakes giving the option to upgrade later. Really the only drawback is that Diamondbacks warranty DOES NOT COVER any bike delivered to your home in a carton. To me, that's just not right. But, all in all, this bike is an absolute STEAL for the price. My recommendation is that if you are looking for a beginner to novice 29er, this is the bike to get. You just can not beat the quality of a Diamondback for this price.
Great Bike!!!
Got my 26" Schwinn mountain bike stolen and decided to go bigger. Well, bigger is better! My friends can't even keep up with me on the road with me using barely any effort at all. I can get to top speed and change the the gears very quickly! It is absolutely amazing. I would buy this one over and over again. After my friends tried this Diamandback with the 29" wheels, they are all convinced about upgrading there bikes. The components are great and the look is great. The only negative thing about the bike so far is the front forks are a little springy no matter how much i attempt to tighten them. I am 5'11, and I purchased the 20" version.
