Late 80's diamondback fleetstreak

Late 80's diamond back fleetstreak mountain bike cruiser we refurbished here at Bike Boom. If your'e not familiar, Bike Boom is a used bike shop in Davis square, on the border of Cambridge and Somerville , near Boston MA. where we specialize in restoring and refurbishing used and vintage bikes and offer professional bicycle repair
1988 diamond back catalog , very similar but I'm not sure ours is the 1988, it can be the 1986 or 1987 as U brakes were only installed between 1986 to 1988.

Over the years we repaired thousands of these and became experts in finding alternatives to original bike parts. 
Buying parts for older bikes is confusing, as most of the original parts have been discontinued.
