Title: Redline RL240...
Post by: ruff n tuff on May 09, 2009, 12:13 PM
Bought this from Lee with a view to tarting it up as a rider - should be strong enough to take my bulk.... (considered an offer from Swivel to take it off my hands but the lure of doing something different and having a ride with a number 1 serial number! - sorry Matt) so here are some photos as is (borrowed Lee's pics)... and what I am thinking of doing.  Bought some bits (various stuff so no restore, just a nice ride - I hope!). 

Let me know what you think.

No comments?  I just wondered what you thought about the paint scheme or even trying to give a mid school bike an old school feel?  Other options are all white, or all black (I have a set of black Tuff IIs to put on it....

I had one of these in my garage before I moved, its at work now stored away  8)

I brought the whole bike in the mid skool years around 94-95 I think.

The No 1 Serial number is very cool  8)

Lets see a step by step resto of this please  :)

I've got the later version ('96ish) in bits in my garage. 

I'm sure it was worth doing anything with mine - I'll keep an eye out for your resto of this one, it might inspire me!
