The postman's been busy over the last couple of days. Parts for the Proline build, and other odds 'n' sods keep turning up  :)
I've still a couple of packages en route too... which is nice  :D
Gotta give a big shout to Chris (crusty) for the 401's, and chainwheel  :daumenhoch:.  Very nice m8, thanx.  :smitten:
Big thanx to Dave (dordymush) for the Haro flo panel  :daumenhoch:
The 1 - 1/4" cable clips came in from some matey in Cyprus  8)
Finally, not for the Proline tho. The  white Falcon Pro number plate from one of our new members Joe (jt71), cheers buddy  ;)

gooday fellow redliners i have a question, i have recently seen a few sets of os redline v bars on the bay, http://cgi.ebay.com/OLD-SCHOOL-BMX-BLUE-REDLINE-HANDLE-BARS-BAR-w-AME-GRIP_W0QQitemZ130131545017QQihZ003QQcategoryZ48842QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem   after speaking to gav about these it seems they are the mini versions of the pro v's. now my question is what bikes were they used on?? would it be wrong to put them on my pl? secondly they always seem to be anodised red or blue, after reading a few threads on removing this stuff could it be done on these,and would they come up to a decent finish, cheers chaps

Hi m8.  The bars that came fitted to the Redline Pl20 Carrera were Redline Stu Thomson signature V-bars. Which are a pro size bar with a width of 27" or so.
These bars aren't mini versions, they're bars in their own right.
It's your call on whether you want them on your Pl bud. It's your build. It comes down to would these bars being a smaller size be comfortable for you to ride with. Also would you be happy with the difference in look. They are a different shaped bar too.
As for stripping and polishing. If done right they should polish up a treat  :)  G.

this pic is my proline with those small bars on. after riding it around a bit i found they were a bit small so i watched ebay for a while and came up with the correct size chrome ones. now it's spot on.



the small bars are now on this 600a and being a show bike it dosn't really matter how small they are. the finish on these bars is superb and i wouldn't mess with them. if you want chrome i suggest you get chrome ones. they are out there, it just might take a little time to get exactly what you want.
