Skyway axle threads
rockinlumberjack:
Hello and good morning to all !
I want to upgrade my Skyway Tuff II Old School wheels with gold nuts to go with other components who are gold. They've already the plastic hub, so they'are from 85-89. I want to know what are the threads of the axles. I've seen on Vintage BMX that they are 24 tpi on the rear and 26 on the front for the recent production. Is it the same for the Old School production, as I tought that they were both, front and rear, 26 tpi ?
Many thanks for your help and best regards.

I think the threads are only different if you have a coaster.

I have a pair of New Skyways coming with the new hub, what pegs do i get ? All i see on e-bay is 3/8"

Fairly certain none coaster are the same too. Can't remember if 24 or 26 :-[
I think it's 24. Remember buying some 26tpi skyway axle extenders and them being a bit loose compared to 24tpi
@ other post: 3/8 = 10mm or as near as damn it
spesh:
they are different fornt to rear i think coasters are the same front and rear(i could be wrong on the coaster tho)
but defo are they different on the new ones
