those frames look like they could do with a tad better protection for shipping

Of course they will. Yesterday I spent the entire day just building boxes and sorting the frames out by serial number. The frames came to me in different boxes for truck delivery, and then all are repackaged.
The system that I have here at work has each box and frame with matching numbers. I then look up the corresponding serial number to the order number, and then remove that box off the warehouse floor to be mated up with its fork- with brake mounts, or non, and handlebar type. Every component is individually wrapped and boxed up, and labeled for dispatch.
I'll put photos of the shipping process up on Facebook today.

But then you would just be the same as everyone else Joff

Only so much different can they look apart, then they will start to all look the same (to be clones, as Devilock would say)

I have the Bullseye stem, but might end up going all Profile as I have one of those too.

Just red dmr's for mine pedal wise, although that might change.

I do like those Skyway Pedals but i refuse to pay the kind of money they're asking for them.

My Bike will be built to a budget and just used as a street cruiser/pub bike. Managed to collect some quite nice bits and pieces for it though. Cant wait to take delivery and get it built up.

That'll look good

That's a good idea, I might then be able to see what I'm missing!!!

you will need to swap that US BB for a euro one and you seem to have some wheelchair wheels, they will need swapping for some bmx ones

Could've sworn when i ordered it that it was US BB. Thanks for pointing it out though

I know the 24" Wheels dont look as good as the 20" ones, but a Skyway Frame needs Skyway Wheels!

wait till you ride em........BOING! flexy is an understatement!

for riding it just has to be spokes.......24" tuffs are definately marmite wheels

I have got black skyways for mine. I'm going for the classic black and chrome. I am not bothered about flex as I've got two other cruisers for proper riding.

I am coming on the London ride this time, no excuses

mattuknc · « **Reply #46 on:** September 08, 2012, 10:12 AM »

Will they arrive before the 16th...
