Your Element is not Tangerine. It is SOP "Sunset Orange Pearl". Sorry but, Tangerine is a 2006 color and Tangerine was not available with gray panels.

Hey I think this post is actually informative. I feel so helpful.

I just went through this w/ my E. It seems we have twins! But the color is SOP, not TM. Like I said, same mistake I made!:D

Just so there is no confusion regarding what Tangerine looks like...

I've got a SOP Element also, I love that color. I'm really feeling the redline though. Is that an old bike? I'm 29yrs old and I use to ride/freestlye and was into bikes heavy when I was like 13 or so. That bike looks like something from my era. How old is it??????

Nice Skyway Tuff wheels Bob. I had a chrome Redline with some white Tuff wheels. You can rock walk and 360 all day on those wheels and they still stay true.

Well I will be 42 Sept 3....so this bike is like 10 years or so before your time. it is from the Mid to Late 70s or early 80s. I bought the frame off of E-Bay and it was freshly powder coated and you can still get the original decals from red line. Yeah baby!

The rims were from a guy on E-Bay that I had bought some white Skyway rims for my sons Newer Redline bike (in pieces as he is only 2 1/2 years old now) The Red color was a one time limited time offer (Remakes and are Brand New). I said O.K. and snatched them up. If you look close the tires are red walls also. This is the bike I always wanted as a kid. Now I have it.

I had a Roger Decoster bike (chrome frame) that was built up from the ground as parts of my el-cheepo bike kept breaking. Shoveled many a drive way for $$$ Bike part $$$ Money! Yeah baby!

Nice Skyway Tuff wheels Bob. I had a chrome Redline with some white Tuff wheels. You can rock walk and 360 all day on those wheels and they still stay true.

A chrome Red Line....Lucky!


Will go take some pics of my kids future Red Line ride and post them here. I wish I could be young again! :)
