I would have gone down the chrome new school build using the aero seat tube, removable brake mounts (or even fixed under the seat stay). Keep the Skyway touches of old but bring it up to date. And go mid bb. :daumenhoch:

Me too :daumenhoch:
Because how many people buying them will actually race them ??? If I was buying a frame to actually race I wouldn't buy one of these :daumenhoch:
Internal headset, Mid BB & removable 990s :daumenhoch:

BITD a BMX was a BMX and used for anything. Well it was round where i lived. Freestyle bikes were raced on and race bikes could be seen having it around ROM.
I like the V brakes as they actually work much more effectively than a U brake.
Who knows perhaps they will be a cracking race bike when they come out. The original TAs were/are awesome race bikes.

I appreciate that, and know V brakes are a race bike thing. Would it be too difficult to produce both types?! :-\

I would have to disagree with the U Brake not working as well as a V Brake. It depends what U Brake you are using. I use to use DC or Weinmann centre pulls and they work friggin' awesome. It's how you set them up.
Skyway are just on the same band wagon as most. Get them out before the 80's guys get fed up buying BMX (not a debate time Rich :D ). They should listen to the buyer more than the bank notes. They will still make a huge profit if it's done right :daumenhoch:

Your entitled to disagree... but you'd be wrong. :daumenhoch:
V Brakes provide superior braking. :daumenhoch:
