I had a look on the warranty info that I have which is their standard info package........... no guarantees but I could not find anything in the warranty wording re any weight limits of the rider that may apply............. common sense I think needs to prevail ;)

Im not an experimented biker and I need it to commute to my jobs ( 6 kilometers for one, 14 for the other ones - considering the full commute) Will this do the job? I dont ride too fast and I mostly use the sidewalks. Thanks for the help

Alex, I cant see why not........It hasn't let me down once in over a year......... remember you do get what you pay for, but, I cant go past it for the dinero....... you can spend a lot more but my thinking is, for what I use it for,..... if a part fails I'll just replace it as needed and I'll still be in front.
I think you'll like the 21 speed-commuting- even though its not top of the line Shimano, it is adequate....... and the big wheels, sturdy frame are all bonuses ;)
good luck

I brought two Diamondback 74cm Overdrive 29[BIG W], and built them Christmas day. both my son and future son in law rode them around the lounge room, and both said that the front forks felt like, that they were hitting metal on metal. Plus the oil breather holes at the bottom of the front forks seem to release oil. We have not touched them since and have just got back from holidays. Purchased at BIG W, Marion Westfield Adelaide SA. Can anybody help? Robin mb-0408857380

Robin......... not sure what you mean, metal on metal??........ do you mean the forks are bottoming out :o ............either way it doesn't sound kosher if oil is pumping out............. I do have a thin smear on the bottom of my forks as well to be honest but nothing to say I'd have a drip on the floor or anything.
A stupid question maybe but..... have the forks been assembled to the headstock/ bars the right way round...... easy mistake to make ;)

It might be a case of warranty call mate......... let me know... interested

I'd have to have a look. I'm not sure.
