I wonder why those Streetbeats were never painted? Perhaps they had manufacturing flaws?

How dare you besmirch the good name of Skyway Phil, possible your right though  :10_2_12:

dordymush:
but the green painted ones are just the same.
so that aint it lol.

weston:
i fit a tioga beartrap to the frame bill gave me & had to hammer it on, i ended up cracking it as it was that tight, then i bought a db one that just slid on loose & the bit that goes over the forks was loose, same prob with the prolite i had... the old school ones have a tight fit....

theRuler:
i think some were intended to be shipped as frame and forks, and some were intended to be built and sold as bikes

the ones to be built and sold as a whole bike by skyway were machined to suit a headset that skyway had in abundance.
TA's could be the same.
maybe skyway fitted beefier cups.

i think they need an "OE" headset of some kind.

no one would ever know as changing your headset cups didnt happen too often.
