Nope don`t like it  :(

Sorry Carl but the only Skyways for a Changa are Graphites, it`s a race bike and nobody raced with Tuffs bitd unless they were graphites, plus your Profiles would look better than flights too, Profiles are the best old school cranks imo and you`ve got one of the nicest sets I`ve ever seen.

Sorry  :(
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,

They were a race bike Carl, a very expensive one at that, and thats why I dont think coloured tuffs look right on them, just like you don`t see Tuffs on a Hutch Pro Star, if you did that parts combo on almost any other bike it would look fine, just not on a VDC Changa.

Just my opinion though, please don`t think I`m having a dig or take offence, it`s just it don`t look right to me  :yahoo_silent:

At first i though OMG!  :-\

But looking again its just the pads that are wrong for me and possibly the tyres.

I like the colour instead of the usual black and chrome  :)

Maybe if the front tyre was a fatty, kind of looks a bit thin and weedy  ::)

Lets face it when you were kids you put anything on the bikes. I used to see tuffs on everything. My mates Leary had tuffs!  :2funny:

Unless you were proffesionally in the sport then you wouldnt use tuffs on a race bike and you probably wouldnt run spokes apart from zeds on a freestyle bike.

Saying that though Eddie fiola ran skinnies on his performer at KOS 85. :shocked:

A Skyway TA was a bike that would look good with both on though. :smitten:

I think the VDC looks more freestyle anyway. The tuffs look the mutts nuts.
