After all the hype the Redline Project 79 kit generated last year, I was sure that Redline would take what they had learned with the 20″ frame and quickly parlay that into a 24″ version.
I’m sure that former cruiser champ and Redline team member, “Gorgeous George” Goodall was hoping for that too.
However, to date there hasn’t been a peep from the Redline about doing this.
Now it looks like Prophecy BMX has beat them to the punch.
According to Red Division, Prophecy is coming out with a 24″ version of their carbon Scud Pro frame.
Pictures are scarce, so currently all we have as a visual is the 20″ frame.
According to the spec sheet I found on their site, the 24″ features:
- 73.5 degree head angle
- 71 degree seat angle
- 21.5″ top tube
- 15.25″ chainstays
(For more specs, check out this PDF on their site.)
Curious to see if these become a hot item at the race track.
No word yet on availability but I will pass along any news or developments I hear of.
good luck with that i own a shop and wanted to buy a couple of frames and they don’t return any emails….sounds shady in the usa until they get a vender here.
