Redline Proline II
GREMLIN:
That's a nice looking frame set you have there John :)
I personally like mine having the triangular gusset behind the seatpost tube, and with your's missing the letter before the serial number, it's just the same as mine. :coolsmiley: A little different from the masses is cool i.m.o 8)
Your chrome on your frame looks way better than mine when it arrived. You've the same problem as me with the front drops tho (with the chrome peeling) :'(. One day mine will be powdered white, i've decided. Just not yet. So i'm happy to live with the drop outs for now.
I like the idea that the yellow / red fade decal sets may soon become available. I'll keep my ear to the ground >:D nudge-nudge :daumenhoch:
Although i'd probably be tempted with buying a couple of each set, of each type that become available. Note to self... i will decide on a scheme one day.
Daryl m8, yours is looking sweet now it's coming together. The Pro neck looks the buisness. :daumenhoch:
Mine may actually be finished off tomorrow. There's a good chance i'll attempt to race it at the Bournemouth meet on sunday.
In at the deep end... Just what i like to see ;).
I'll fit the chain tomorrow and take it out for a bit to see if it's as good a race bike as i'm expecting :smitten: Grem'. :)
Frosty:
John,
Was not meaning to rub it in, as I think the gusset is rarer anyway, plus it would have been put there for a reason ;)
As for the earlier decals, I'm keeping them as the basis for starting to collect the necessary to complete an original Carrera too, sorry.

Redline:
Hey Paul,
Yeh can't blame you for keeping those decals... sweet!!
Any chance you could scan them for me though? Would be much appreciated!! ;)
John
Frosty:
John,
I can't scan them at the moment as the scanner is storage until we move back into our house following re-modelling, but thereafter no problem.

i don't think i can use either of those other decals due to a long scuff down one side of my downtube which is currently hidden by the longer 85 set, shame :'(
good luck gav if you do race yours and im glad you are all finished m8 :daumenhoch:
i want to see some nice detailed snaps from you, i have actually managed to re work that new set of decals you sorted me, by instead of just having a straight join i carefully cut around the edge of the end section where the black meets the grey
you can just make out the join after the curve on the grey section but it certainly looks a lot better :daumenhoch:
