1984 Redline 500A [SOLD]

I picked up this 500A frame from the US for a real bargain. It wasn't in great shape, so I had it powder coated in a candy red by Danny at PWS Finishing. The Araya TB507x rims are from Natsukashi BMX and they were laced to Bullsheye hubs by RADBMX Shop The brakes are 1984 Dia-Compe MX 890s with Tech 4 levers. The vintage single pinch, full wrap Redline 170mm 401 Flight cranks were rechromed and the 43T chain ring was in beautiful condition. The Brute stem and STR-1 bars were both picked up on Ebay from the US, as were the Redline seat post and the Peregrine seat post clamp. The minty fresh Redline stamped Viscount seat came all the way from Australia and the repop MKS pedals were from Japan. The frame may not be rare or particularly desirable, but I love this bike... it's a definite keeper. Thanks Steve for the pad set!!
