Redline BMX is one of the most influential and innovative brands in BMX history, founded in the early 1970s by legendary frame builder Linn Kastan. Drawing from his background in motorcycle frame construction, Kastan helped elevate BMX technology almost overnight, introducing groundbreaking designs such as chromoly frames, uni-crown forks, tubular cranks, and the iconic Redline Proline. These innovations set new standards for performance and durability during BMX’s formative years, helping establish Redline as a dominant force in early racing culture.
The brand’s legacy continues through efforts like Redline Legacy BMX, led by Curt Kastan, Linn’s son, who preserves and recreates early Redline designs using original tooling and traditional fabrication methods. This work reflects the deep personal and historical connection behind the brand, emphasizing authenticity and craftsmanship rooted in BMX’s earliest days. As both a pioneering manufacturer and a lasting cultural symbol, Redline remains synonymous with the evolution of BMX, representing a direct link between the sport’s origins and its continued influence today.
