The new Diamond Bicycles DM-1 Pro

Michael and David Diamond are the brains behind the new Diamond Bicycles DM-1 Pro. They’ve put together a great value with top-notch components and an impressive frame. Speaking of value, this Ultegra-equipped bike sells for $2295; compare this to a Trek Madone 6.2, which retails for nearly $4200 (and has a lower quality Shimano 105 cassette), and you can see this is a good value for the money.
