Re: 1982 Skyway T/A (prototype)

It doesnt have serial number on it (it still has Skyway stamped in the rear dropouts)...no S/N = classic sign of proto
2. The rear dropouts dont have the drill holes at the end of the seat and chain stay welds (most TA's ive seen have holes)
3. There are no drainage holes in the bottom bracket race where the chain stay meets (most TA's ive seen have holes)
4. there are no drain holes where brake bridge is welded to the seat stays (again, most TA's ive seen have these)
5. geometry may be slightly different to final release
