I heard a rumour that Skyway were going to do a cassette hub version-now that would get me to part with my cash.
will be interested when they reissue original alloy hub'ed graffites, why dont they? they would sell millions!
Last week the old riveting machine was brought in from where it sat in storage for the last 23 years. The thought was too see if the old equipment would still work. If it did work.... We might just put out a few alloy flange wheels for the die-hards out there.The machine was cleaned up, oiled up ... and plugged in............. excitement filled the air as memories of 1979 rushed through everybody's minds...PUFF! A bright light... a cloud of smoke.... then flames. Gears grinded to an extreme halt. BANG!The fire alarms rang.... and the fire was put out.The excitment that had been felt all day long leading to this point died suddenly."No more rivetted in hubs" sobbed the head engineer......And with that... the machine was pushed back outside to spend an eternity back in the storage warehouse.Bummer.

That would be nice....... but it's not going to happen. Not right now at least. The engineers need to build us a cassette Tuff Wheel now........
