wot would a ratty old one be worth as just seen the one below and thats the bad boy i remember  tis me grail 

[RATTY]

I managed to get a minty frame and forks 4 months ago off the bay for £70 all in. Trouble starts if you want the bars and stem (forklifters) they go for good money.....

Lovely bikes though, I dont wanna ride anything else these days

Jammy git

I'd love one.

[RATTY]

And it was up two weeks earlier for B.I.N. £350, it never sold and went up for a 99p start, only 2 bidders...result.

Mind you its the only frame I ever won on ebay that was a result..

The one below is an 84 RL20...  no rear platforms on the chain stay, no peg holes on the forks and Redlines 1st Freestyler... quite rare... 2-3 hundered pounds?

Ratty, I think your is a RL20b, tri moly and from the late 80s...   could be wrong, my brain only works upto about 1984

Bren, You are correct about my brothers RL20 , 1984 and redlines first freestyle bike and they do seem to be quite rare as i can't find much (if anything) about them and no-one seems to have one (the lucky swine).I would love some old pictures or prices from bitd if anyone has any.
Cheers

[Bren Gunn]

Only add I have...




Don't think they sent 'em out in that spec though

[snav69]

Cheers Bren  , I think that was the prototype as the little gusset piece is missing.
Thanks
Paul 

[RATTY]

Yes Bren, mine is an RL20b, bit newer than most of my bikes, but currently my fav

[gt0733]

hahahahaha redline done a number on everyone there. it's a proline with a bracket for the coaster brake and fancy stickers which means it's spot on 

[snav69]

     Did they do a proline with oval tubing    Would they go through so much trouble to fool people ( doubt it ).
Paul 

[snav69]

Forgot i had this


 
Paul 

[Bren Gunn]

It's not a proline, it's  a pro styler... fat oval down tube, coaster hanger and forks that look like it's just run into a brick wall....

[gt0733]

sorry fellas i had my tongue in my cheek. i didn't realise it was that serious and it's hard to type with emotion. my appologies.
