Hi guys...
Well for the 3 years that I have been a member of this site this is the bike I've I always wanted to do.
As most of you know, it's the Skyway Streetbeat that is my all time favourite old school BMX.
Since watching Craig and Carlo on Bmx Beat in 86... It's been my 'most wanted'....
The ad that inspired the build......
Now big thanks to all who have helped with this....it's been a long, but well worth the wait, build.
Thanks to everyone, not least SBD, Del, Pickle and all the others, you know who you are.
Ok here we go...........I hope you enjoy.
