Race build... :-\
-
Tricky, Dicky. :-\
I'd say Tuffs but on a race bike. ???
-
Spokes
-
Spokes for a race bike :daumenhoch:
However I understand Dan's ??? completely.
Skyways look so right on a TA, therefore I match Dan's ??? and raise him one :-\
-
Graphite tuffs if you've got the money :daumenhoch:
-
Put what you want on it Rich ;)
TA's look great with Tuffs, having said that im doing one and it's getting Pro Class rims 8) , I prefer spokes over Tuffs though :)
-
Yes ideally graphites would be splendid & tremendous...but as you say rather costly. :(
So would you lot use spokes if you didnt have graphites? Definitely not standard ally Tuffs...? Although as Donna & Nicky have said it still looks good with Tuffs...
-
I like the idea of Joffs build with the Pro Class rims. :daumenhoch:

YOU maniac!! :D
I was thinking Pro Class... I was also thinking of using them on that 'other bike'...! ;)
-

Exactly as Joff says :daumenhoch: Try a tuff on the rear and a spoke on the front, be different man, be articulate and build only for your pleasure, not what would please others.
Can I get you to buy all the bits and build a bike the way I want it please ??? That way it saves me a fortune if I don't like the look of it :LolLolLolLol:

Of course it will be built how I want it...I was just interested in the views & ideas of others. Thats the whole point of the forum! :D
-
Both Spokes & Tuffs look good on TA's, but would only put Black Tuffs on though.
-

So what are you putting on it then ???
Ask Clint for his spoked Skyways. You get both options then :daumenhoch:
-
Got alloy hub tuffs on mine. Spokes were never going to be an option as its how I wanted one BITD.
-
Do like them with tuffs, and always thought they should go together, all the pattersons did well on them bitd including 24" have never really seen any white TA's racing in old magazines
-
Skyway TA
Skyway Tuffs
Simples....
-
Oh dear
-
Terry is bob on, can soon be arranged ;)

Hmm its a race bike but theres a law somewhere saying you have to put Tuffs on a Skyway....graphites maybe..?!?!
-
TUFFS
-
Yeah I too had the reasoning of Skyway + Skyway & coveted that set-up BITD, but......I dont know......does anyone really care?!! Im going to sell everything.

The first bike that comes to mind when you mention race biks on skinnies is Glenboy's Ripper :smitten:
