Standard Package White '84 Prototype Tribute Redline by Kastan RL 20 II Prostyler 1 of 100.
The RL 20 II Prostyler’s first appearance in public was in the capable hands of Redline Factory Freestyle rider RL Osborn in the summer of 1984. The bike was presented in the simple black, white, red, and gray livery of its predecessor, the RL 20 Prostyler. However, aside from its five-inch tall head tube and elliptical down tube, the RL 20 II had benefitted from a complete design overhaul. Redline founder and chief engineer Linn Kastan used his deep knowledge of Chromoly steel construction to create something that “other brands would find “hard to replicate.” Its fully wrapped head tube, tapered rear chain, seat stays, aggressive head tube angle and built-in rear standing platforms ticked every box and projected the new model as the most advanced freestyle model of the 1980s era. The RL 20 II was produced in the late summer of 1984 at the Kawamura Sangyo factory in Kobe, Japan.
Grab one of the final RL 20 II Prostylers, available in limited numbers due to a few order cancelations during the manufacturing period. Built from 4130 Chromoly to original specs, these packages are part of a limited run built by the Linn Kastans team of bike builders.
Only 100 serialized of these highly sought-after 1984 RL 20 II Prototype packages have been built. Each one is hand-signed by Linn Kastan, and these will ship to customers before the end of April 2024.
