Hi guys. Yeah all things covered there I believe.
The Streetstyler in general is regarded as the 'poorer' of the two.

I've just took some pics for you to compare. My baby blue beat and my white styler:
(Baby blue beat for sale by the way!!)

Think it was the Street Scene that was part cromo Bob with a plate on the rear standing platform instead of round tubes  :daumenhoch:

most would say the US made beats i guess  ???  TA style tubing and made in the good ol US os A  :daumenhoch:

It's a funny thing, but i think due to the amount that were sold about 6 years ago for next to nothing they are still looked at as a cheaper frame and forks  ???  but when they came out they were up there with the best and had the likes of Campbell, Ruffle, Canning, Hoffman and so on all riding them  :daumenhoch:

Stylers are nice though and have some nice touches like stamped fork dropouts and stuff.

Think i need a styler in the man cave soon  :daumenhoch:

Ahhh I see, must admit to me the Beat does look the better frame. Looks like more thought went into making them.

The late Rini Enterprises had a few of those Street Scene's, but they were NOS frames only.
