The Diamondback women's Lustre 1 mountain bike was developed with fun and function in mind, with such high-quality features as a Hi-Ten Remington Steel frame, a 50mm suspension fork, and Shimano derailleurs. As a result, the Lustre 1 excels whether you're riding a tough trail or cruising the city streets. The Lustre 1 hails from Diamondback's Devine Designs line, a series of women's-specific bicycles made up of mountain and comfort bikes, beach cruisers, and two different series of hybrids (traditional and performance). Each bicycle in the line features a similar look and feel, but includes several unique women's-only features that you won't find on Diamondback's men's bikes. Whether you?re looking to chase down (and pass up) the guys on the trail or you just need a ride to class, the Lustre 1 has you covered. Other features include a SunRace seven-speed twist shifter, 26-inch Kenda dual-sport tires, and a Devine women's-specific ATB seat.

The Lustre 1 includes a Hi-Ten Remington Steel frame and a 50mm suspension fork.
