Diamondback Release Frame Identifiers: Build a Useful Model Record

Diamondback Release frame identifiers are useful when a short advertisement says little beyond “Release.” The saved Release 29 3 specification describes an aluminum trail bicycle with hydroformed tubing, ISCG-05 tabs, a Boost 148x12 mm Maxle dropout and a 1.5-inch tapered headtube. Together, these form a more precise model record.

Diamondback Release frame identifiers: keep the source attached

Start the record with the complete name, Release 29 3, and the saved manufacturer page it came from. The description calls it an aluminum trail bicycle; the frame row adds hydroformed tubing. Preserve that distinction between the general model description and the more detailed frame entry.

These terms identify the published platform. They do not supply a measured complete-bike weight, a load limit or approval for every route someone might call a trail. Such conclusions require information beyond the fields reproduced here.

Record interfaces without inventing approvals

ISCG-05 tabs appear explicitly in the frame row. So does the Boost 148x12 mm Maxle dropout wording. Retain each full label in a supplier enquiry rather than reducing the record to “mounts” and “rear axle.” Precision makes a question easier to understand without predetermining its answer.

The same row gives a 1.5-inch tapered headtube. That belongs with the frame information, separately from whichever fork is actually fitted. These catalogue identifiers do not approve a replacement fork, guide or axle; a proposed installation needs its own complete assessment.

Add observations about the bicycle you are considering

The local Diamondback Release 29 3 Bike supplies the named product reference. Keep the actual frame label, configuration and known component changes with the model record. If an advert's wording differs from the saved table, preserve both accounts and ask for clarification instead of silently combining them.

Leave the manufacturing year unknown when it has not been established. A file name containing a year-like code, a web publication date or a photograph's capture date is not evidence of when a particular frame was manufactured. The historical drivetrain picture likewise cannot identify this Release frame.

The page used here is a saved published specification and includes a notice that specifications can change. The record is therefore a reference for asking better identification questions, not proof of the bicycle's present equipment, condition or availability.

The existing Diamondback history supplies broader background, while the Diamondback model topic keeps related model information together.

FAQ

Does the saved frame row mention ISCG-05?

Yes. It lists ISCG-05 tabs among the frame identifiers.

What rear-dropout wording should a record preserve?

The table says Boost 148x12 mm Maxle dropout; keep the dimensions and name together.

Can a photograph date establish frame manufacturing year?

No. A capture or transfer date concerns the image, and the historical photograph does not establish this model's year.
