Title: Rebel freestyler information
Post by: Bornintheusa on July 25, 2016, 04:14 PM

Hello everybody. I live in Texas, if my username didn't give it away, and I come here to ask for information about Rebel Freestyler. I have heard that the same guy who owned Rebel Racing marketed the Rebels down under as freestyle bikes, but this doesn't exactly jive with the fact that many of these Freestylers are listed as 1984. Rebel Racing is a bike company I'm really into.


Does anybody know the information on Rebel Freestyler or have any photos of them in magazines or other ads?

Thanks for any information guys!!!

Here is a pic of my original rebel I bought new back in `83.
Bought the frame forks seat post and bars.
It was all I could afford at the time and I think I paid £125 all in ??
I think the rebel USA and Rebel UK was two different companies .
And the rebel logo was the same as the revel and they had to change the branding but went under a couple of years later.
Great bikes and very strong..
Trust me I abused that bike.. :police:
