reason i ask is because i was round dalestuanmi the other day and his enthusiasm for racer vintage bmx's has rubbed off on me, wanna race a few meself now and build a vintage bmx up cheap, but a skyway etc are just a little too short

Then you're better off going for a Freeagent Limo then Marty, if you can find one that is.

They were a long top tube but i don't know how long off the top of my head, 21"+ i think, also built around that time. Even the early 1990 Limo's are legal for Old school race as they have a caliper brake and a 1" headset.
One build a year, the only way to get it right. No rushing involved.
