  We report on recent studies of the feasibility and impact of replacing one of the regular 1.4 T bending magnets in Diamond with a normal conducting 3 T "Superbend" in order to enhance the hard X-ray output for a possible future beamline. We describe the preliminary magnet design, the engineering implications and the effect on beam dynamics, including the additional constraints that arise from implementing a superbend in a DBA lattice, as compared to the more common application in a TBA lattice.
