Title: Skyway Tuff Pads
Post by: e5dcb on August 16, 2011, 10:44 PM

Hi guys ,
I have Dark blue Aero mags and need to change the Brake pads which are black to blue to stop the marking on the rim. I can only find Baby blue Tuff pads , has anyone fitted these to dark blue mags and do them mark them ?

Just fired this off to Kool-stop..........  :daumenhoch: Never know......  :D

Hi guys,

I met a few of you and Mr Kool-Stop a couple of years ago at the Bike Show in Earls Court London where we discussed the SKyway Tuff Pads and the Old School BMX scene. Now I know you guys are making Tuff Pads again in various colours, but is there any plans to make the Continental Old School style ones in these colours too? The demand is high and the originals are demanding MASSIVE prices (especially in white and black)
Would be great to see the Skyway branded OS style ones in production again too.
Any reply would be appreciated.

Best regards,

Lee.
