Title: ANOTHER SKYWAY TA WELL ON THE WAY......
Post by: mclarenj on February 13, 2007, 09:48 PM

So here's my second build to start the year. It's a 1983 Skyway TA that was bought from DEFJAM(cheers Rich) that has been buffed and cleaned till I can see my face in the reflection.

The forks are not TA(I think they are Attal or some dutch make). It has a Sugino one piece crank set,and Skyway padset. The bike has EZ bars(NOS) and a Sugino stem.

White Tuffs & Comp 3's in RED arrived today and I have also sourced some Skyway Graphite pedals in RED . Kashi MX ready to fit,just not sure what seat clamp or seat post or brakes to get......... :-\

Oh-and Izumi RED chain and Shimano freewheel to finsh her off !
