The 1999 Diamond Back Ignitor FW BMX features a frame built from oversized hi-ten tubing, paired with a matching hi-ten fork using 1-1/8” blades and a chrome finish. It comes fitted with DB handlebars offering a 7” rise in chrome, held by an alloy four-bolt stem. Braking combines an alloy linear-pull rear brake with an alloy front caliper, while the drivetrain uses a forged 6-1/2” crank in chrome with a 44-tooth chainwheel, matched to resin platform pedals. The wheelset consists of alloy 20x1.75” 36-hole rims with heavy-duty steel hubs, wrapped in 20x1.75” tyres. Comfort comes via a padded seat with a chrome steel seatpost, and a three-piece pad set rounds out the package.
