If I had that money available for another cruiser, I'd hit the 'buy it now' button

I think its a very fair price considering the rarity

Fooking lovely. It's the only cruiser that would make me build one.

Can you ever imagine the tortious slow death the wife would inflict if I did . . .

Do proper bragging rights come as standard with this bike?

Dinged up and no serial number sounds a right bargain :idiot2:

You need your head testing if your going to spend $5000 on it no matter how rare it is.

been following the thread on bmxmuseum, think it may have been someone on there, someone posted it had sold then he just posted a smiley face nothing more, he's the number one suspect, ah well we can all go back to thinking about realistic bikes again now and no more pipe dreams, christ if i had bought that frame and my missus found out i know she would have left me no questions......

how many exist?

I think I read somewhere that Skyway only made 6,...... and currently only 3 are known to have survived?

Post by: martylaa on May 25, 2010, 11:55 AM
i read 12 were made for the team riders, not sure if we'll ever get the exact number though and how manys left, i would have thought ed at colored tuffs would have tried to buy it so he could do re-runs of the frame like the retro 20" bikes, ah well maybe next time. not!!!!!!!

Skyway made 12 of them back in the day.  That's all.  I owned one of them until 1991, when 4 theives took it from me on my way back from the races one day.......  I raced mine for years..... It was THE longest bike out there at the time...
