+/- 1980 made by Murray. Besides their own name, these were labels as/sold thru multiple department stores ( Sears, Montgomery Ward, etc).

1986 RL20A. -
SBS Sticker but what is it?
mr coasterbrake replied to 76jimmygoose77's topic in Preservation & Restoration
Seattle Bike Supply (prior to Accell) was the former owner of Redline, but they no longer exist. -
info on this old GT bike what year
mr coasterbrake replied to bmx018's topic in Riding, Research & Collecting
The frame is a 1988 Haro FST or FSX (same bike, one had mags, one had spoked wheels). -
pictures will help determine the model, but that number looks like an Asian-made frame from 1997.

Parts Help : 1984 Haro Freestyle Master
mr coasterbrake replied to AndyMac's topic in Preservation & Restoration
There are two measurements to consider: The diameter of the cup where it presses into the frame needs to be 32.5mm (that .5 can float a little, depending on the cup manufacturer). The second measurement is on the fork where the lower race presses on. That will be either 26.4 or 27.0mm depending on what the fork maker chose to use. **NOTE** old school BMX 1" headsets are different that most other 1" headsets (ie: road bike, MTB etc). The 32.5mm BMX size is not very common. anymore, sp make sure you get the correct thing. As for the bottom bracket, you want an "American" (sometimes also called a "pro") sized for the frame spec. Then you'll need to get one of those that is compatible with whatever style/brand of crank you want to use. -
Need help identifying a bike
mr coasterbrake replied to Meadow99's topic in Preservation & Restoration
This bike is fairly recent (and entry-level)- it has a more modern head tube gusset and treadless headset. **edit** After a little digging, that looks like a 2016-17 Redline Roam. -
How rare are these Tuffs?
mr coasterbrake replied to GG Allin's topic in Riding, Research & Collecting
the stamping on the webbing rather than the brake track would probably make this mid-1980s+. Skyway made/makes composite wheels for all sorts of things besides bikes (mostly besides bikes). Is that even a bike wheel, or is it some type of cart wheel? -
Skyway tuff wheel ii coaster brake
mr coasterbrake replied to dav451's topic in Riding, Research & Collecting
a Bendix will. As for finding some Suntour guts...look for an older 70s-80 junk wheel or bike. A lot of bikes from then had sun tour hubs on them with 28-spoke hubs that not many people want. since all you need are the guts, you should be able to find one of those pretty easily/cheap. -
DECADE PRO/DYNO SERIAL NUMBERS????
mr coasterbrake replied to TURBOSCHILZ's topic in Riding, Research & Collecting
if I remember... that rectangle stay tubing was used on mid/late 90s Dyno VFRs. -
DECADE PRO/DYNO SERIAL NUMBERS????
mr coasterbrake replied to TURBOSCHILZ's topic in Riding, Research & Collecting
Robinson looks like a "GT-made" Pro (P) from April 1992 (0492xxxx). Dyno looks much later - probably post 2000, at least. -
32 hole gt race lace hubs
mr coasterbrake replied to Richard4130's topic in Preservation & Restoration
Araya "super 7x" was another option (I think they were OEM in 32 hole on some GT bikes). -
Xcaliber clamps used a smaller diameter bolt/nut than most of the lookalikes.
