1987 Redline RL-20II
1987 Redline RL-20II
The Holy Grail 2.0!!!
The RL20-II was always my dream bike and I was finally able to build one in 2009. Unfortunately, I had to sell it and I doubted I'd ever have another. Thanks to Dookie, and along with some other members, I was able to gather the parts I needed. I love the Cali Red look but I wanted parts that I liked. Tuf Neck stem, Mushroom II grips, Tech 7 levers, etc. I'm really happy with this build.

Re: 1987 Redline RL-20II
Wow! That is sharp. I agree those yellow cables really pop. Good call.
Cool, a new bike. Wait a minute.......where am I going to hide this one. She's going to catch me for sure!!!

Thanks, I'm making a minor change to it soon. Going to swap out the Super Pros for a set of Peregrine Masters.

Re: 1987 Redline RL-20II
Very nice, amazing!! I had a new one when I was 14, must have been an 85 or 86. Looked just like that, but I opted for chrome bars and chrome cranks to match the fork/back of bike. If you ever decide to sell, hit me up, I'd love to have a red one hanging on the wall....might give you a chance to build another, jk....great job man!!
