Can anyone help, new skyway tuff's or old metal hub tuff's for 83 TA

[steve Beech TA]

This is my 83 TA (waiting for some bits still) i cant decide wether to put the wheels on in the pic's or get some new tuff's what do people think.
The turbo disc is coming of and a white one going on, new decals are coming along with a white chain. what type of iner tubes should i get, or can i go down halffords









What ya think this is my first build!!

defo keep the Alloy Hubbed tuffs ! looks nice - personally i'd go for Red Comp 3's too

[QUADROPHENIA]

leave the alloy hubbed tuffs on

[brass monkey!]

Inner Tubes - Tesco's ones are okay + Cheaper than Halford 

[steve Beech TA]

might be easer to put red comp 3's on dont know if you can tell all the white bits bar the foot print tiers have cling film raped round them to keep them cleen

For 83 deffo the alloy hubs; plastic front, alloy rear from late 84 and all plastic from late 85 onwards

yep alloy hubbed tuffs all the way

looks like the front tyre direction is facing the wrong way not that it matters your not going to ride it are you       goes for the inner tubes any will do 


looks fine though dude

[selfpreservation]

wow that looks fooking mega mate chrome and loadsa white that takes me back alloy tuffs all the way and loose the brakes get some mx1000s  and lower the stem FFS 

[Mattdub]

Don't listen to those chumps Steve, I can correct it by trading you some plastic hubbed tuffs..... 

I'm kidding, people swap limbs for white tuffs in that nick they look super dooper.

This was always my favourite Skyway ad and still is, the bike on the left has always floated my boat, you might get a bit of inspiration from the pic. You can only see half a bike but if I ever come across another pair of  alloy white tuffs I'd build this....

Thanks for all ya comments so far, the reason i was wondering about newer type tuffs is that i would love to have a little blast on it, not been on a bmx for 20 years and its killing me. even if its just down the lane! i dint wont to mess the wheels up or anything ells. ya see to me this is my little show pony,(may not be to others), my childhood dream bike, i will add little bits and bobs as i can afford them, ya right  mark j, cw bars would look mint, other than that it will be as is. do others ride there show bike's, just a little bit. i don't know?

 

[steve Beech TA]

Has anyone got some nice CW racing bar's at a resonable price

[Swivel]

Mark i'd have to agree with you, love that advert and always sticks in my mind. Steve that bike is lovely mate and those tuffs are just what I'm after  no mate really, its lovely, do it how you want but I do reckon seeing some CW's on it would look the nuts 

[Brandy Truffle]

That is nice. Dont muck about with plastics now..Keep the alloys.
Only thing i would do maybe is pick out a few red or blue bits to compliment the Skyway graphics.
Just my personal taste,but otherwise that is loverly.
