Redline Cross bikes? . . .

Anyone have experience with these? They seem to be a good budget-line cross bike. Pros? Cons? Experience with good and/or bad quality?

Redline

I've had friends with them and all have liked them. The feeling was they were one heck of a bike for the money. This was all before Cross Bikes were all the rage.

Cool

weird, everytime I see or hear Redline's name, I'm reminded of the popularity of their BMX bikes when I was a kid. Now if only PK Ripper would get in on the cross game

Fuji bought SE Racing, owner of PK, so who knows, maybe some day?

They ruined the whole line! I was stoked to hear they had revived the brand, I wanted to get the original jersey. But they ruined those too!

I still have one- bright yellow with a Landing Gear fork- Redline (of all things) 3 piece cranks- Skyway Tuffwheels - CW bars-

The whole nine yards-

I rode my first vert ramp on that bike!!!!!

I still think about picking up an OM Flyer one of these days-
