Well, not for the TA as that was F&F only.  Which models are you after?

The TA came as frame and forks only so you choose the components yourself.  Best bet is to grab an old mag from the time and source parts that match the era.  That way you can build it lower spec or super duper top spec, but still keep it era specific.

The later models 87 onwards may have had a spec as Skyway introduced their own parts.

I bought a Spinmaster when they first came out (UK) in 85.

The streetbeats and streetstyler completes had one piece cranks if i remember correctly but the factory riders always (except pepi) used redline three piece cranks.
To be honest suntour stems would not be seen on streetbeats bitd/suntour stems were popular quite a while before streetbeats came out.
