4 Reasons to Buy the Diamondback Response

  • Bike moves extremely fast, especially when compared to similar models.
  • is lighter and stronger than bikes created in the past ten or so years (aluminum).
  • The brakes are fairly powerful compared to similar models.
  • Comes packaged nicely and is easily set up by a mechanic.

5 Reasons Not to Buy the Diamondback Response

  • Takes an entire afternoon to set up.
  • The tires feel a little on the heavy side, and the gear shifting is beginner-level.
  • The front shock provides hardly any absorption and is prone to breaking.
  • You might want to consider updating the pedals.
  • A high-quality suspension seat post is needed to balance out poor shock absorption.

Bottom Line

There’s a lot going on for the Diamondback Response, but it doesn’t come without its drawbacks. If the drawbacks are negligible for you, then this e-bike is amazing for its price.
