Re:
Hi all, I'm new around these parts so thought I'd introduce myself! I've got a couple of Skyway Street Beats from 1985, (well one is the wife's to be honest ;-)), an original paint green one and a repainted sky blue one (I'll post pics when I've worked out how to).
First bmx I had in 1982 was a Super Burner, which was a replacement for my Grifter that was stolen. I upgraded it with various parts over the next couple of years and eventually bought my mates Firebird Delta II frame and forks from him, but never got it built up. I then swapped that frame and forks for a team issue Raleigh Aero Pro frame and forks, built it up with Araya 7x rims, Robinson Expert bars, Grafight X pedals and other goodies. I loved that bike! It was stolen in 1987... I still haven't gotten over it! ;-)
