Looking at those photos, makes me think that Skyway TA's look far better with rims and spokes.
Thats just my opinion

Well spotted Mat , thanks Mick .
Mountain bike race yesterday at a place called Rim Nordic . I got 5th in my race and 2nd for the series overall while the shop I ride for (Bear Valley Bikes) won the team trophy . Good times with some great folks .
Havin a ball over here but missing youse blokes a lot too . I'm sorry to have missed Robertos' last show 'n shine and have a big catch up like last year but like they say , all good things must come to an end . By the way , thanks Roberto for all the work you and your family , Ross and the crew have put in over the years . You created the defining event for Qld. at least and now the torch has been passed . Well done sir , the Australian vintage BMX scene will be forever grateful .
Has anyone got any new builds going ? I'm so far away from all my parts it just seems too hard right now but maybe soon .

Perhaps we need to organise a container of both out bikes/parts to be shipped over Gav. Good to speak with you on the weekend too.

Things are nice and simple here, always been my favourite place. I'm going to do one last (I always say that) build for old times sake just to post here and going big. Have to talk to Martin and get him to do another too. Love to see another build from you too Stu.

It's coming along, just need the name to go back on the frame and plate.

Thanks Noel! yeah how are those fish, I saw them in a shop the other day but didn't realise they flew.... unreal.
are you building anything Noel? I love your blue Nomura haven't seen a picture of it for a while.
having said that I think Matts one is stunning too, wouldn't mind stealing the stem off it either.

Wow Mick they are some crazy forks, I can't think of one benefit for the set up though...
I'm thinking about rebuilding the Profile, I stripped it down long ago but I miss it..the finish is pretty bad, and I've had the forks repaired (the usual Profile crack in the fork tabs) so it is kind of a candidate for a re-chrome or maybe black powder...
