80s Diamond Back MTB / Hybrid Restoration & Conversion to Corner Bar Gravel Bike first look (Part 1)

First look at my next build. It's a beautiful Chromoly Steel purple Diamond Back hybrid. I am going to take everything off, clean, replace some of the parts and build it back up as a modern(ish) gravel bike while keeping it's old vintage charm. First time trying corner bars. Let's see how I will like them. I'm going to divide this build into 3 parts. The takedown, clean-up and the build itself. Follow along & hope you enjoy!
