Nothing much to report on OSBMX either

Some nice pics of the original tubing from Ed though.

I've just received my email from Ed Ferri.

I made the cut and have confirmed my wish to purchase one of the framesets!

 :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:

I am so looking forward to this.

Got my mail !!  :daumenhoch:

For those that are interested.......



Thanks again for your interest in the "old-school" Skyway T/A 25th
Anniversary frame and fork set that we are working on.

We have a bit more work to do on the project before production begins, so
we are still not 100% sure on the color of the framesets.  We know for
certain that we will be making white frames, and we are still exploring the
possibility of making a few chrome frames.  Chrome frames require frame
tubing that has been pre-polished, and we still need to figure out how many
tube sets we have that is polished.  Secondly, chrome plating has
skyrocketed in price, so we are anticipating that there might be an increase
in price for chrome framesets.

Pricing for the 25th Anniversary Skyway T/A frame and fork sets will be
$499.99, and will be limited to a run of 100 sets globally.

UPS Ground shipping to areas in the USA will be $15.00.  Shipping to Canada
and Alaska will be $30.00.  USPS Global Express service to all other parts
of the world (England, Australia, Germany, etc) will be $58.00.

The frame and fork sets will use 100% True Temper 4130  Cr-Mo tubing, ALL
formed and cut in the early 80's during Skyway initial production run, and
will feature the original racing geometry with it's 18.5" top tube.  100%
American made.

We will be taking deposits for the frame and fork sets in about 2 weeks.
We can accept payment through Paypal, Visa, Mastercard, or by money order.

At this time we need to find out who is certain about purchasing this
frameset, so we are asking that you kindly reply to this email to keep you
on our list.  If you have decided not to remain on the list, please let us
know so that we can fill all 100 spots on our list.

I look forward to your reply!  Thanks again for your interest in this
beautiful, legendary BMX frameset, AND for your part in re-introducing
Skyway back into the BMX scene!

hey guys!!
 Things have been rally busy here with work, and some traveling to some old-school gatherings, but I'm back home now, and I sent out emails to everybody about 14 hours ago.  Regardless to your number on this list, you should have gotten an email.  If not, check your spam box!

 It looks like many of the framesets will be heading over there to the UK!

It was down for a day or so because he exceeded his bandwidth. It's back again now, at least it is for me.

I guess the advertising that I've been doing for the website has been working!  The site has been down alot lately due to too much traffic, and I've asked my web guy to get more bandwith!!  It's being worked on...!
 Skyway has been slammed with things, and this project has been moving s l o w l y ....., but we're still trying to get it done!  They are still trying to figure out some welding issues, like WHO is going to weld them...!
 hang in there guys..... cheers!
