Deeman,

your post got me pretty fired up so managed to find the time to get my Prostyler together - finished it this afternoon. I'm going to add it into the members bike section with more photos and a parts run down, but it really does look sweet all built it. Come on with yours!!

When I was born, the world was a far simpler place.
It was all just cops and robbers.
And BMX.

OOOOH! That has made my evening, that is sexual! you beat me to it! I should have mine done this week! You need to have a word with Steve (firebird)and get him to do you a proper RL-20 frame pad as that's all yours is missing imo! I am proper gagging to get mine finished now!!

thanks, the best comment so far was from my 4year old son, who, on seeing me wheeling the bike through to the garden, dropped his fork while he was eating his lunch and said 'Wow!'.

Redline freestyle corner at MK15 gotta be built!

Deeman,

"Can you say RAD technology" - that's what it says in the Freestylin' review from 84 and you've got it totally stock. What's the decal on the top tube by the seat post?

if you've cleaned out the seat tube its bound to be a bent post - does the post roll on a table? Well done cant wait to get it set up with mine in Redline corner next MK?!

That's exactly how I wanted it! I remember lusting after them after reading that very test! The only things not correct are the bb, headset ( still has a hatta) and the grips. Can't tell if the post rolls on a table as can't get the fooker out either now! I might have to wreck it getting it out! It was the correct post but a beat up example anyway!
The decal by the headtube is a Redline triple butted/ lifetime warranty decal which is not on the test bike but came on the actual completes. Del does them or I have a slightly oversize one you can have.  :daumenhoch:

Hazard Yellow. Matching stem and bars all ready to go.





I thinking about swapping out the redline fluted post for a straight Hutch one I have - the fluted posts all appear to be slightly wider diameter.
