Fook off was it!!!  :D :LolLolLolLol:

It was, it had black z rims and a black seat post. But I don't have a picture to hand. Might be one on my pc at work.

I dabbled with Skyway Streetbeat but never finished it. Also had a yellow 87 Performer at the same time, but no pics of that.

this sat in my shed for a few years before i rebuilt it.

tried riding it at the skatepark which was scary, don't remember it flexing as much as it did.

also took it waterjumping in this video
