The Redline RL 20 II Prostyler is not just a bike; it's a beast. This four-year project has been long and arduous, but it is a testament to our passion and dedication to producing authentic products for the BMX community and your commitment to owning and appreciating them. Every one of these bikes exists because you committed to order one. Every time you look at or ride that bike, remind yourself of that.It's a BMX bike born from a brand of innovation and complexity that Redline built its reputation on, celebrated in the present for its timeless functional and graphic design, its almost mythical role in Freestyle history, and its versatility as a rideable Freestyle bike. We've poured our hearts into the RL 20 II, and we're grateful to everyone who has supported this project and made a purchase.

Name: E (Six-Pack-To-Go)
Hometown: Lake Hopatcong, New Jersey
Started riding BMX in: As a kid in the '80s, just around town, never raced or rode anything organized.
Number of bikes in the collection: Fluctuates but I’ve had up to 50 at one time.
Do you remember the moment that you decided to start collecting BMX memorabilia?
Six-Pack-to-go: Yes, at was at the Race of Gentlemen in Wildwood NJ years ago and I saw a woman riding a Skyway TA and I was like damn, my buddy had that bike. That’s what sparked it. It was probably 2017.
You've got a museum in your shed, how often do you go in and just sit there with a 6-pack looking at all the stuff?
Name: Brett Jackson
Hometown: Hudson, Massachusetts, USA
Started riding: 1983
Number of bikes: 22
Do you remember the moment that you decided to start collecting BMX memorabilia?
Brett Jackson: Yes, absolutely. I’m still green in the BMX collecting hobby. About 2 1/2 years ago I was looking for bikes for my twins. One wanted a BMX, one a mountain bike. While searching for a good quality bmx, all of the old feelings of riding came flooding back. I ended up buying my son a 2016 Redline and myself a 1998(?) GT. I quickly learned the difference between old school, mid school, etc. I became determined to build a few old BMX bikes for my kids to ride. I found a couple great local guys into the hobby that turned me onto great Facebook groups. I was hooked.
What kind of bikes do you focus on?
Brett Jackson: I focus on bikes from late '70-s to mid '80-s. I do not like to go beyond 1985. (I have one or two beyond '85). I love both race and freestyle. I started collecting freestyle, and fell in love with so many race bikes.
All about the Torker Pro-X frame and why YOU need it!
Name: Bob Lipsett Jr
Hometown: Hamilton NJ, Mercer county, USA
Started riding BMX in: 1980
Number of bikes in the collection: 8 bikes
Do you remember the moment that you decided to start collecting BMX memorabilia?
Bob Lipsett Jr.: Exactly when! I bumped into my buddy 2 years ago that I used to ride with back in 1980. We were talking about his business and what I do and he made mention that he just bought a new SE racing PK Ripper. I instantly thought of my 1981 Super goose that I lost in my parents divorce when I was 12 so from that day until now I've been back involved with late seventies an early '80s BMX racers,
Name: Frederick James Weeks Jr.
Hometown: Falmouth, Massachusetts, USA
Started riding BMX in: 1978
Number of BMX bikes in your collection: 27 currently
Have you been a Mongoose fan from the start?
FJ Weeks: Well yes, started out w/ a hand me down spray bombed Huffy. I got my first Mongoose Supergoose in 1981 which is still w/ me today.
What's the story behind the Racer's bike?
Name: Luke Haralambous
Hometown: Birmingham, UK
Started riding BMX in: Around '81
Number of bikes in the collection: 9 left (8 VDC, 1 GJS)
Do you remember the moment that you decided to start collecting BMX memorabilia?
Luke Haralambous: Late '90s, it felt like I was the only one into old school BMX back then. Many friends questioned why I had BMX.
Is the focus on VDC, Vincent Frames and Vector Bikes for you mainly?
Luke Haralambous: Now it's just VDC freestylers I own, I have stopped buying BMX, don't get me wrong if I was offered another MK1/2 , VDC freestyler, it would be hard to turn down... I've collected Vector, Hutch, TRM and Vincent over the years
Where does the love for these brands come from?
Luke Haralambous: Good question, because the brands I have collected I had never heard of as a kid! Think it comes down to my love of quirkiness. The wackier the better. Rarity is also a big draw.
In this video, I finally build my childhood dream BMX bike—the 2022 Hutch Trick Star Reissue! After waiting over a year for the Hutch Freestyle Stem, I decided to use a placeholder stem and complete the build. Join me as I walk you through the entire process, from unboxing the bike frame to the final ride around the neighborhood.

Started riding BMX in: Torrance, CA - USA
Number of bikes in your collection: I have never counted —— and I am afraid if I do the number will scare me.
Since you were part of BMX in the early days over in California do you wish you had saved more from the early days?
