What does it mean to recoil? The dictionary defines it as "to spring or come back; react." The Diamondback Recoil takes the dictionary definition to heart. Whether it's flying down the wide-open trail or making its way through twisty single track, the Recoil will react to the terrain under its tires and then spring back to take on whatever comes next. The bike is equipped with such features as an aluminum 4-inch trail frame, an SR Suntour XCT fork with 100mm of travel, a Tuff Shock Coil rear shock, and a Shimano Acera rear derailleur with eight-speed Rapid-Fire shifters. Add in 24 gears and Tektro mechanical disc brakes and you have a bike that won't cower in fear. The Recoil is always ready to spring into action and give you a great ride.



The Diamondback Recoil is outfitted with a 4-inch aluminum trail frame.
