I found out today that my RRS is one of 2 XLs ever built
I wanted an RRS since I 1st saw one in the late 70s in a BMX magazine, when I finally got the opportunity to buy one, I did. But it wasn't until I went to install a Campy road bike headset, and it was too small, even then, knowing that RRSs used the smaller size, it didn't register. But today, an a vintage BMX site, in a thread discussing the most rare of BMX frames did I see this.
Quote:
When I rode for RRS I had one of 2 20” XL frames.
I doubt anybody even knew that RRS made a 20” XL.
The frame was made from a used bike. The original frame was extended 1/2”. The frame was cut about 3”s from the seat tube and bottom bracket, sleeved and added a new front triangle. Another unique addition was a stand Bmx 1” head tube (not the standard 1” road bike head tube) with the Redline style head tube gussets.
So if nobody knows about it is worth anything?
