DiamondBack Joker (2011)

 DiamondBack's Joker 2011 model is similar to the previous model from 2009 and fits the same market niche. The Joker has been one of DiamondBack's standard entry-level street or skate park BMX bikes since 1998.

This version has entry-level pricing and uses a lot of proprietary components, plus entry-level Tektro brakes and levers and an SST ORYG cable detangler. The frame is made of tig-welded steel, as is the fork, connected with an FSA threadless headset. The cranks are a three-piece setup. Aluminum rims, steel hubs and Diamondback 2.1" tires comprise the wheelset. Also included on this model are two interchangeable pegs. The Joker is available in white with red component highlights or black. It targets newcomers to the BMX scene.
