the frame looks just like my redline rl240 frame (1996)

really nice frame, great size and shape.
i'll have a look at my rl240 and see when i get home from work.

looks same though - cable guide in same place.
dont know about the forks though

it looks like a mid 90's (bmx dark ages) frameset.

the rl240 was front tubes chromo rest hi ten
a good solid frame.
that may not be one, but it looks the same. looks like it was built before the bmx fashion police deemed toptube platforms "uncool" in the late nineties.

my redline rl240 frame (1996)

its a lot like my 96
the 97 was the same too

all companies would make a similar frame to this. just a standard "freestyle" frame.

when frames changed in late nineties most co's moved away from this frame design, leaving it for the "BMX Chrome" companies to use.
this century that style of frame is often generic, but in the mid to late ninties it could have been a qual frame.

its very similar to my rl240

the only difference is the one in the ebay auction has a slightly larger gap where the top and down tubes meet the headtube

so it aint the same.   :santa_afro: ho ho ho
