Well, depending on what photos i base my replica on,it could be either, but the one 'Grubber' rode on the cover of BMXA (plate 51) is an unbraced one. A later photo (plate 16) and he is riding a braced frame as you can clearly see the brace while he's about 6ft in the air doing a 'Leary Lookback' so i think its safe to say he was close to the end of his time at Redline then.

So yes,it it like Rattys beauty,the one with the red rattraps in Museum. :smitten:

Jim's is the later model with the brace and of course it's white and with the incorrect decals for an 84 f+f. A bloody nice set & it was nearly mine,but fell through for various reasons my end  :-\ but maybe its for the best as i'd have had to re-chrome,re decal,blah blah..

I'm kicking myself cause the correct frame went on ebay for 60ish quid buy now recently and i missed it.

I'm sure one will turn up at some stage as WetWetWet once said.."with a little bit of help from my friends"  ;D

Back on topic and to 'Subwax', i dont know him,& i'm not a member there,so i wont cold call him at OS BMX.I doubt he wants some n00b contacting him.

Thanks for relieving me of my confusion tho  :daumenhoch:

Good luck trying to find an unbraced frame set with all the stickers still on it ;)  serial number should start with 3#####

I dont have to worry about the decals. I have some sheets of NOS Proline decals given to me by an ex factory rider who took interest in my plight.. Just hope the adhesive hasn't gone to pot after all this time.
