Author Topic: MY ULTIMATE SKYWAY! (Read 2403 times)

munners · « **on:** November 30, 2007, 09:24 PM »

This is BMX for me, as it was the bike i had as a kid. Exactly the same apart from the tyres. I did have Blue early Tioga logo comp 3's but i am sure someway along the line i had blue grippas!

THIS BIKE LOOKS A MILLION TIMES BETTER IN THE DAYLIGHT!

The frame and forks was NOS from a little shop in the States! Touch.
White alloyed hubbed tuffs with blue mitshob tyres.
DC MX1000 in blue with blue DC tech 3's and cables
Skyway EZ bars Mark 1
Blue Suntour stem
Skyway platform
Chrome seat post with blue Kashi Aero and a blue MX hinged seat clamp.
Sugino 1pc with Shimano Dx's and blue tuff neck chainwheel, Izumi chain

Hope you like.

No b0llox , that look's feck'in good

Sorry ( I'm sure I'll get a backlash ! ) but ally hubs Tuffs look spot on

. I'm fookin' sick to death of 2007 Tuffs on things , no imagination ! .

My Opinion , they all differ ...

Looks good.I had one of those platforms years ago-wonder what happened to it.And I had those bars on my Haro.They cracked on one end of the cross bar and my dad had to weld them! I dont remember them being that big.Strange.I like white.

Lovely Nick - great combo with the blue tyres (but I'd loose the platform with the knobbly tyres)

Very very nice though mate!

highrisedrifter · « **Reply #21 on:** December 01, 2007, 05:39 PM »

That's gorgeous, Nick.

It's almost exactly like my T/A was back in the day too. Same colour scheme and everything.

Cheers everyone. Always nice to get positive feedback.

This bike means everything to me. Rombloke is spot on. It was 84 that i got mine! I was a 9 year old spoilt kid i guess! My brother borrowed the bike in 1997 and left it at a mates, never to be seen again! Terrible.

Anyway, its back now and if i sold them all i would keep this one.

The tuffs IMO look so much better when alloyed hubs. They are a must on my builds. I have 3 sets in white and i enjoy the renovation work on them. Steve P was a great help with his advice at getting them spot on.

All the parts on this bike were pretty hard to get hold of and EXPENSIVE! Stupid prices but i got there in the end at it was worth it! I am when its a nice day gonna update the pics on all my bikes. I hate the shots that i take under that light!

Cheers all, Nick
