1987 Redline RL-20 Prostyler

a nice survivor with some nos parts

  IN THE 80'S see a redline in mexico was near impossible due to cost double the U.S. and only 4 shops were selling freestyle bikes then have an age almost unimaginable, the years passed and one day looking for parts on a site I found a 1990 dyno slammer and buy it and after talking about the wonderful years, he tells me: my mom has a frame stored in the closet, and I imagine a frame of a sunset or something, then his younger brother came out with a frame and fork. `I could not believe a pro styler rl20 and almost fell my back. after a few months One day a good friend brought me a pair of blue kenda then I got acouple of acs 860 new, then another friend said, he found a pair ofnew five-spoke wheels and went for them, finally missing the bar the "v"bar next to impossible, until one day walking, I saw a bike that carried him and negotiated about 2 hours and finally I have it and the end is this beautiful redline named" stacy "

Re: 1987 Redline RL-20 Prostyler

I have the pleasure of knowing Mr. Pilares since the good old days, and I must say he's one of the few BMX legends left in this part of the world.

This bike has some interesting modifications it would be nice to talk about. Why dont' you tell us about the back wheel?

Hope to see you this weekend at the spot...!!
