I'm a prostyler fan and researched them quite a bit - but I've never seen a Redline catalouge with a chrome one in or an advert for a complete chrome one. I seen scores of adverts for the chrome frames. The museum has a ratio of about 5 to 1 white vs chrome so I guess they just weren't popular, in fact, freestyle at that stage was really all about white and then coloured / fluro frames sets.Id be really interested to know if anyone actually bought a complete factory spec'd Prostyler - most of us bought F+F back then.
The chrome F+F were the same price as the white - see the advert, 169 dollars bitd.I've got that edition of Freestylin' - RL is never ever pictured riding the catalogue / stock prostyler. In fact, he's never riding the same build twice, ever! I'd of thought though if they did do a stock chrome prostyler all the components would be black with chrome bars seatpost and opc. I think black so as to tie in with the decals.I could talk all day about the prostylers, hugely underated imo.If you build it let me know, but I'm with the majority, the white is by far the best, but I'm now wondering if a chrome F+F with white masters and red anno parts would work?!! Perhaps worth checking the builds of some of the PL20's?
Yeah, white forklifter stem and black headset (tange). framestander and pegs where a buy from ebay usa.
Loving all of that. I'm fired up to get mine built up now.....i much prefer the white seat to the black....

Am I going to have to wait for you to find the other one, before you build up your RL then?I don't know if I can wait that long
This guy has a set in the US as well, and will ship. Never seen um with the edges like this, I guess they made them later like it?http://www.ebay.com/itm/Old-School-BMX-Redline-Frame-Standers-For-RL-20-A-Prostyler-GT-CW-SE/131285078412?_trksid=p2050601.c100269.m3464&_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140813133143%26meid%3Da338e6e2f8d7452f99aad201f26342ab%26pid%3D100269%26prg%3D20140813133143%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D131285078412%26clkid%3D335258208422507386&_qi=RTM1562569Looking forward to seeing it then Deeman, get cracking
