Hey Guys!

Are there Reproductions out of Skyway Mark 1 Ez Bars?

If so, How do I tell the difference between original 80's ones and the Reproductions?

Many Thanks

The repro's are finished in black, and are a bit wider than the 1986/7 ones.

Originals have 2 small bands of knurling where the stem goes,the repos have 1 large band of knuling.

Well I have a pair that have been powder coated and unless I can't see it theres no knurling at all??

I have a set of re-pro Ez Mark 2's but there black and totally different...

I wasn't sure if they actually made re-pros of Skyway Ez1's..

Only way to know for sure is to remove some of the powder on the bottom of the bars where the stem clamps.

Finally got the answer guys... the Original Ez Mark 1 Bars are 27.5 inches wide and the new ones are 29".

The new ones only come in black as well....

Many thanks for yr input

The repop ones are chrome underneath mate-so best going by the knurling   

[BMX1973]

Did'nt the repo ones have Skyway etched into the chrome and you could see it under the black paint.

Sure I read that somewhere, got me thinking

Yes they have it laser etched into both sides
