Very cool to see the 240. I remember when they were starting the 240 and 640 freestyle bikes and I was getting one to test out. The first frame I saw was the 240, but I thought it was the 640. and I was super disappointed in the lack of 990 mounts. Then the 640 was unboxed and I started riding it as soon as it was built up. It was such a different feel going from a Homeless Soul Bro build; the 640 felt huge. Seeing that 240 has definitely sparked some memories.
Both the frame and the fork dropouts are actually 2 old school thin dropouts welded together right? My 1994 GT PFT also has thin welded dropouts. It's stronger, but not quite as strong as a mid school laser cut one-piece monster plate dropout. 🤣🤣 And I would try to find the BB for the monster crank instead of this 'simple' 1-piece. 2.12 lbs is really not that heavy, 3-piece cranks like profiles are around 1.8 lbs and aluminum 3-piece GT's and Haro's (maybe even powerbites) are around 2.14! So, for safety reasons, I'd go with the monster crank...
That RL-20 on the stand looks AMAZING. Love that colour.

The Soul Bros were so small. I dont think most people realizes that it was tiny!
