Redline Rl240 values
« on: February 27, 2013, 02:53 PM »
Hi All,

I've managed to source a '95 RL240 frame NOS and am wondering whats its true value might be. Having riden a mongoose for many years (my junior) I'm keen to get it fixed up to its former glory.  HOWEVER, as with everything at the moment, i'm being cautious with the £'s!  although i'm willing to build it up and enjoy the end product, i'm not keen on spending a shed load more that what it's end value might be.  SO, before i get too far down the line, i'm curious as to what its value might be now.  Many thanks, hope the above makes sense!!! Ron!

Funny that - I've just split mine and still got some bits in the garage.

They were a mid range bike BITD but were quite long in the TT area for the era.  I had been riding mine for a couple of years until this weeks split - quite a decent ride.

Value. Hmm, dunno. But I say if you're feeling, it's build it - don't worry about end value.

**thread high jack - I'll be putting my F&F in the for sales soon**

I'm keen to build it up mate, but it may take some time putting in the extra hours at work to pay for  it!!! Thanks again for the response, being new to the site, much appreciated

One for sale here :daumenhoch:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2047675.m570.l2736&_nkw=redline+rl+240

bit strong if you ask me.The price would probably be more realistic if it included the forks

That one is the earlier version - the frame standing thing meets the top tube differently.  Is it rarer than the later one? I dunno, but I agree - it looks way overpriced.

Here's a pic of mine before I split it.

Is it the 240 or the 240 freestyle. most of the bits are pretty easy to find but the freestyle had a weird centre pull caliper on thats hard to get hold of.  As for how much its worth hopefully millions and billions as I have a 94 freestyle but I doubt it.
