1985 Skyway Street Beat
1985 Skyway Street Beat.Green and Pink Combo. NOS frame, forks, bars, Tuffs, well I guess everything on the bike is NOS with the exception of the KKT pedals I brought back to life and the DK inverted stem which has a mirror finish. I added Skyway pegs on the front and frame steppers on the rear, Lee Chi front and rear brakes, pink frame, bar and stem pads, green Skyway brake pads F/R, green & black Hutch Trick Top seat. I also added the GT frame grabber and Oury grips. Not too bad. Thanks again to costzoomeer for the NOS forks.

Don't know if I like the pink with the green (personal choice). But it is a very clean build. Nice Skyway.

Re: 1985 Skyway Street Beat
I bought this build when it was about half finished. They started out with the pink and green, so I just continued with the colors they were working with. They had an array of parts, from NOS Skyway to 2007 brakes, forks and bars, etc. I just took it back to 1985. I do need a head tube badge in pink, if anyone has one let me know.

Ordinarily, I'd be recoiling in disgust at this color combo, but strangely enough, I think it works on this bike. Nice job.

I think this color combo is wild! It works very well on this. It reminds me of the Joker or Green Goblin or something!!!
