Title: Skyway tuff wheels question ??
Post by: rick1970 on January 24, 2012, 07:59 AM

What came first and what years ?  im guessing  tuff 1s first  :LolLolLolLol: but where there any changes to design ie hubs materials nylons etc , then the tuff 2s my main query , was it steel hub then alloy hub then cross overs and now all nylon hubs sealed or not  ?  if there is already a thread covering this i would appreciate a link .

thanks in advance chaps , Rick .   :daumenhoch:
