REDLINE PROLINE 11 ADVICE
Tricky:
I have just uncovered my old Redline Proline 11 from the loft and plan to restore it to its former glory.
I am deciding whether to get it rechromed as it was originally or to get it powdercoated white...Any advice on which looks best?
Can anyone recommend anywhere in the north east to get the work done? and where best to get the original stickers from.
Many Thanks In Advance....
Rich
Ps i will post some pics shortly before i begin work on it..
stidds:
Decals from www.bmxstop.com.
RATTY:
Or you could sell me the forks!!!
LOL. My one is chrome and a bit shot, I think a re chrome is the answer but it will wait until I get the forks, why not build it anyway and then see how you feel
Tricky:
I think i will rechrome it..its just the white ones look pretty cool too. The frame number starts with RB think thats 1982.
The forks are the propper Redline ones that i got with the bike. I noticed when i stripped it down the forks are actually stamped with Redline at the bottom of the shaft that goes into the stem.
Could you tell me how much these f & f are worth.
Cheers
RATTY:
Mine was £150 frame and forks, but the forks are tired and show stress cracks on the drop out, the same place i snapped my originals in 83, so I am a bit nervous about using them. Chrome is the best, but white is a close second. heres my one, I have changed a few bits since this pic, its got 185 flites on it now.
and heres the pic when I bought it
