prolite??
« on: November 10, 2006, 10:24 AM »
one of my first bikes as a kid was a prolite. I remember being slightly imbarressed about it :-[ because our track was full of quads,rippers,robinsons,hutch and the like and my prolite looked a bit cheap :-[
I can't actually remember what happened to it but the next bike I had was a gt pro.
now years later I look back at the prolite with fondness. is there many of them still about? are they commanding a good price now? I've tried to find some info on them but can't find anything?
I know they made a freestyle model but mine was, if I remember right an oval frame.
is there any for sale at the moment?

yep thats the one :)
i remember the seat and pedals were different is your bike stock?
so what sort of price do these bring now? are they harder to find than others?
there always seem to be rippers and quads popping up for sale but ive never seen a prolite :(

You are correct Dordmeister. I've got one of the earlier looptial ones with the 'P' cutout in the gusset, but couldn't find any earlier decals to put on after I had restored it.

Might be persuaded to part with my looptail, if the offer is good.
