My Skyway TA 24 is done
« on: October 13, 2012, 05:21 PM »
After a morning at Rad shop, built my baby up:

Gone totally new school with it, nothing retro at all:





Custom made Proper Hubs (thanks Stodge for sorting that) and Demolition aero rims with blue nipples




Proper stem and LDC lever


Proper chainring and DMR vault pedals


LDC caliper



I love it, rides like silk and gearing is perfect.

Did the LDC lever come from the Radshop?

No, bought them from Ultimate BMX.  :daumenhoch:

Still got a few tweaks to do to it now that i have got it home  ;)

I have to say it is such a well balanced bike, would win a slow bicycle race on this so easily.

Nice but the bars look too tall for a cruiser  :-\

Great to see one without tupperware wheels  :daumenhoch:

What's wrong with the seat position?  ???

Looks alright to me

Had you got out of bed earlier and got to the shop at a reasonable time Pete you could have had a go.

Good to see you mate, albeit very briefly.


Thanks again to all at the Radshop  :4_17_5:
