1977 Red-Line Pro-Line

1977 Red-Line Pro-Line

This is a first year Pro-line

This is another of my bikes that I bought from the original owner. It is a 77 Pro-Line serial number is 84xx which makes a late 77 The bike was in pieces when I got it, missing only a few parts, it still retains its original paint and decals with the exception to the fork decals, I tried to leave it alone but it just looked naked without them, so I added replacement decals to the forks. The bike has its original Dura-Ace cranks, Red-Line bars, Red-Line double stem, Tange Meriter MX-Pro head set, Tourney brakes, frame pad and stem pad. The original wheels, pedals, grips handle bar pad, and seat was gone so I added a nice used set of Oakley I’s, Reedy pedals, Cheng Shin big/little tires, Red-Line v-bar pad, elina seat and a set of 7c’s. A set of red 7b’s w/Phil hubs would be more period correct, but the 7c’s are all I have.

That is an awesome bike you have there. That serial number does make it an early model.


It's not the kill, it's the thrill of the chase...

Very nice bike!!! I think that bike may be a 78 because it does not have the 2 hole gusset from the 77's. The bottom bracket serial sometimes got mixed in, and may be from 77 that were left over.

Re: 1977 Red-Line Pro-Line

Thank you for the comments; this is by far one of my favorites.

As far as the gusset; the Pro-Line never came with a two hole gusset, that was only on the 76 Squarebacks and the first generation MX II s
