Skyway Street Styler build.

[Smidsy]

What type BB do I need?

Also what size headset?

To clarify I have not got the frame and forks yet (coming very soon)  so can not measure it.

Thanks

You need a standard 1" threaded headset like this....

These are good as they don't come undone like most old headsets!
BB...one of these,,,standard american BB

No worries,,,if you have any other questions feel free! What colour is the Street Styler? Do you know what parts you are going to use?

Think I will be going for green Tuffs and DC MX brakes

Nice frameset and colour bro.....green tuffs could look cool....i would probably use white bits. Keep us posted on the build 
it already has a headset and BB cups by the looks of it...or are they being removed?

They were a surprise addition to what I was expecting, although I may change the headset for white. Thinking white bars, seat post and then green brakes and seat.

Its to match with my caravan

green grips too...should look cool! i am building a Street Beat for the missus atm, will look forward to seeing how it turns out. stick a wanted ad up for the parts you need...always worth it...you will get much better deals off radsters usually than taking your chances with enay etc.

I would do Green Grips & seat. Maybe tyres too.

Silver Cranks parts and pedals.

White Brake (with Green cables) set not sure.

I have Street Scene which is Blue with Silver and white parts that looked cool.

So having been concentrating on my Goose build the SS has been neglected.

I have put it together with a stem and wheels that I have (but these will need to be change).

The result so far.

[Smidsy]

Also have some manky green tuffs but I think I am going with a blue/white theme now (as per the original 'as sold' scheme)

[Smidsy]

So probably end up going for this look (the bike not Mr H)
