Hey there guys..... looking at returning to the scene after a 30 year absence and am thinking of doing it on NSR!! What are people recommendations for a 20" or a 24" Cruiser.
I really like the Redline Pro XL what do you guys think i should consider if wanting a Cruiser? Opinions, reviews and pics greatfully accepted lol

The Redline pro 24 is a nice bike. Have a chat with the lads on bmxtalk, they'll point you in the right direction.

Excellent! Am looking forward to sharing our new to NSR experiences through the year!! :daumenhoch:
I've read nothing but good things about the new school Redline race bikes. I know you're leaning more towards a cruiser but there's a decent-looking 20" Pro XL now on ebay:-

If I was in the UK, I'd be after this! There was also a 20" Flight Pro XL mentioned over on BMXTalk. Keep us posted with progress!!

There are plenty of good brands out there aimed at more of a "starter" (lack of better vocabulary sorry).
Dk, Redline, GT and Haro. Just to name a few of the more common names, all have some really solid bikes that are good to race straight from the box. Many of those companies also do run the high end set ups, which is from memory what the Flight series is.
Then you also get other Brands like SE, Kuwahara and Chase . There are plenty of others out there, but that's a pretty solid chunk of the more common names you would find out there before going down the custom route.
Best thing I can recommend is, try both types out and see what you feel more comfortable on, which will lead to being more confidence.
