Redline Proline Help (Again)
« on: May 01, 2008, 01:34 PM »
Still on the hunt for an early Proline F+F... Have i found a frame here?

Can someone confirm if this is definately a PL frame? It looks like it has 2 diff era decals on,but the headtube looks 5"?  :-\

what is that on the drop outs??

It looks ok to me apart from the drops and also the bottom of the head tube can't really see clear enough if it is flaired or not like mine

Like Paul said , not sure what's going on with the dropouts  :-\ .

The seat tube decal would work with a frame with no support to the rear of the BB ( downtube is later decal ) .

And a close up of the headtube needed  ;) .

I'm wondering if it's a mount for those eliptical chain tensioners  :-\

Dont buy it without forks, the forks are rarer than the frames now. I hunted high and low for replacement forks.

The frames are pretty much bomb proof but the forks crack on the drop out fairly easily.

If the pic is a PL frame then its an early unbraced one, so the stickers are probably not correct :daumenhoch:
