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

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

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

baldbmxer · « **Reply #39 on:** June 03, 2009, 12:46 AM »

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

Love those red tuffs

I agree I would loose the red pads & put black on it

Stunning, one of my fave bikes bitd, looks the bollox Carl

double chevron · « **Reply #42 on:** June 03, 2009, 08:26 AM »

Nice to see a bit of color

Diggin' those french tyres and the O'wings !

BUBBS · « **Reply #43 on:** June 03, 2009, 10:04 AM »

I had white tuffs and VDC freestyle bars on my Changa back in the day I have still got the bars, nothing wrong with tuffs on a changa

munners · « **Reply #44 on:** June 03, 2009, 10:13 AM »

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!

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.

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

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

dordymush · « **Reply #45 on:** June 03, 2009, 10:17 AM »

agree with above.
i was always told if you aint got nowt to say nice dont fooking say it

ozone · « **Reply #46 on:** June 03, 2009, 10:25 AM »

Yeah, what he said. Everyone's a critic

Looks coolio IMO. Unorthodox, maybe, but cool all the same.

munners · « **Reply #47 on:** June 03, 2009, 10:32 AM »

Go on Dave!

Good to see you back on here posting regular.

Like i said again....anything went bitd.

Neon coloured tuffs for fooks sake says it all!

dordymush · « **Reply #48 on:** June 03, 2009, 12:22 PM »

its just a line of chrome changa's with black parts and spoked wheels all in a line do nothing for me.
thats why everyone has got there own way of a build.
dont mean its wrong

Mattdub · « **Reply #49 on:** June 03, 2009, 01:09 PM »

Like it with a different colourway

, would go black pads though .
