I have an old school redline BMX...it has to be from the early 90's, maybe even older. Most parts on it have been swapped out for mid-90's components, but the frame is all original chrome. I wonder how much it could be worth [Confused]

That Race inc is Legit!! try out Bmx museum and become a part of that forum and those guys will help you with colors,sticker,etc.I got an itch about 4 years back and built what everyone was calling "mid school" Robinson. it was a Robinson pro Alum XXL frame. before that I Rode a few different S&M bikes in bmx days. since the robinson left I got more into MTB stuff. this is my fixed gear/dj skate park bike:

 -

this is my all around MTB:
 -

and if everything goes right in the next few days I will finally have a short travel DH/freeride bike in this scheme:

Interesting topic.

I know cafords has taken a very unfavorable opinion of bike riders in recent years (lol), I've also been thinking about picking up a used entry level road bike myself.

I'm looking at something under $500 used. Any recomendations?

I need a 54-56cm bike with gears... Looking for fast and reasonably comfortable for long rides.

Thanks
Luke

I was pretty big into BMX you could say. I used to race ABA bmx back in the day. Did all the Nationals for about 6 years. Did stuff with X-games when it came to SF. All stopped when I took a 25ft. fall onto my back. Broke it pretty good. I still feel it today. Not sure if it was my worst crash. I did rip my left ear off in a crash. 36 stitches to put it back. But through my years I did ride for many great companies and had a good Race team way back when. Let's see first company I rode for:
Specialized. I had a Fatboy A1 Team.
 -
Then GT. Here was me after tearing my ear off. I had to use a Beanie to keep the bandage on over my ear. But why should that stop me from riding?
 -
I started Dirt Jumping more, so here I'm with my Huffy TL-88
 -
Then I rode with the Boss guys for a while. I'm still looking for my pics of both my bikes from them.
After them I got a great sponsorship from Cheeta Cycles. With them I got my associate sponsors Chris King, Crupi, Answer, Sun-Ringle', Hayes Brakes, Shimano.
I have pics of my 6 bikes somewhere. I only have 1 of it now though. This frame, Hubset, and Disk Brake system was designed just for me. This would be in 1999-2000. So at the time this was far advanced. Chris King worked with Hayes Disk Brakes and Cheeta to create a 1 off, single speed, disk brake BMX bikes. I sold it like an idiot to a friend about 2005 after my son was born, thinking I could get it back later complete, but he lost my disk brake. But frame and hub were still there, so at least I have good build off it.
Here is it now. Cheeta Teamline JN Signature. 1 of 1. 75.5* Head angle, 72* Seat tube angle, 22" Top Tube, 14" Chain stay.

1 off Chris King Single speed, Disk BMX hub, and the Disk mounts

I finally went and bought a road bike last year after years of riding mountain. Its fun but I still prefer the mountain bikes, I save the roadie for when the trails are muddy and I don't feel like getting dirty
