Skyway coaster arm, 2009 Freestyler
« on: January 14, 2012, 11:26 PM »
Hi,

My friend has a 2009 freestyler, and some recently purchased Tuff's with  a coaster. Any ideas on how to attach the arm to the frame?

Cheers!    8)

Joe, did you not see what frame the Tuff is going on as well??   ;D  ;)

As pictured above, grab a copy MX clamp and use that.  I ran one BITD and run some tennis raquet tape around the frame where it went  :daumenhoch:

Coaster brakes are the work of the Devil!
