Only this week I was thinking of clearing my collection to concentrate on Redline Freestylers....at present I've got a RL20 Prostyler and two RL20ii's, with another ii on its way from USA right now.

My original plan was to build a collection around my favorite bike from bitd with a minimum of one of the what I considered to be the best parts of the era. Since I've been building the Redlines I've grown to really appreciate them and their build quality, so much in fact I'm not feeling some of the builds where I've collected the parts and am ready to go.....

It was all just cops and robbers.
And BMX.

Not one brand for me. It varies year to year. I have my favourite brands though Haro, Skyway, Mongoose, Raleigh, Kuwahara. Which I suppose is the common ones from back in the day.  :)

Raleigh was my bike back in the day but i have strayed to brands i wished i had as a kid.
The Raleigh nostalgia ran deep though and before i knew it i realized i had at some point built all the production bikes the U.K & U.S teams had rode bitd.
I know most of you will remember this thread i put together.....crikey nearly 3 years ago. Some of the newer radsters may not of have seen it though.

I love to buy different makes, types of bikes and parts now .. I was Haro obsessed for a while... Variety is the spice of life !!
I love the building but as Joff wrote earlier I love the rides equally as much ... Met so many top lads through  :radbmxsmilie:  :daumenhoch: :coolsmiley:
