Re: SKYWAYs NEW BIKE; Wa wa?

@ ED, are the fork brake tabs/posts "fixed" or are they the type that have a female thread boss welded to the fork and then the male threaded post (i.e. - can I remove the posts when not using front brake configuration)?

I just wanted to confirm this prior to our final payment/option selections.

Re: SKYWAYs NEW BIKE; Wa wa?

Are the decals that same dimensions on the 20" and the 24"?

If I order the ones from Planet BMX are they the same ones that will come on the frame?

Thanks,
Matt

Re: SKYWAYs NEW BIKE; Wa wa?

Any ideas of when our final payments are due?  Even if it's a rough time frame. I'm leaving the country in 4 weeks for 3 weeks and am trying to budget everything. please let me know if anyone has any more info.

Thanks,
Sean


I can not sit still. I have been tested for A.D.D. and A.D.H.D. and have neither. I don't need coffee, I just need a B.M.X. or surfboard to consistently ride and I'll be happy. smile

That's what he said in the beginning anyway.
Regular skyway xl decals. I asked the same question.

Probably the smartest thing anyone has said in a while.

I dont mean to criticize anyone or harp on peoples individual tastes but...... when I look at Ed's Chrome/Black 24 I get excited. The bike looks absolutely AMAZING. But the red one with the new school profile chainring and all black tires was just ruined with those parts. Gorgeous looking frames but I guarantee the guy who comes up with some sweet old cranks and something unique like 24 inch ACS Z rims is going to have the best one.

the black and chrome one is my favorite as well. hands down. Nice looking bike. I'm going to follow that path with mine. Let the Chrome do the talking. wink

That's what I tried to do with my 25th. ann TA, it's not as easy as it sounds some parts haven't been retroed yet by the actual company that made them BITD. Like ano headsets, seat posts, chain rings, stems. I had to keep upgrading as the stuff became available.

you guys have taken this to a whole new level.  christ, you think a set of zrims and old cranks is going to be the "best one"?? what you build, in your eyes, WONT be the best one? sorry, but mine, IN MY OPINION will be the best. whomever doesnt give their build the top credit lacks individualism and self pride. The closer we get to the release, the more wacko the posts are getting LOL!!!
