Downhill bike value

Back in the 80's, a Diamondback Viper was pretty sweet, a Silver streak was badass. The cool kids had a Mongoose but when a kid showed up at the Vees* on a Hutch with tuffs? Everyone went "Oooooo".

*An offshoot ditch of the Highline Canal in Aurora. Center Hills golf course was there for a while- not sure what's there now. I heard the golf course was shut down.

Ahh yes, the Diamondback Viper. Circa early nineties, I would go to the local bike shop and drool over the Vipers, I wanted one so bad that I went out and got a paper route to save up enough money for a red Diamondback Viper, it was the most expensive thing I ever bought.

The chrome Mongoose was the shit back in my day. I didn't have one, unfortunately. I had some crappy Schwinn.

I later traded my Viper to my brother for his Chrome and blue Diamondback Assault, came out on top with that one, and always had the chrome shining, that?s when chrome was cool.
