Title: Skyway Ta 20" 2013
Post by: PKRIPPER on September 17, 2013, 01:50 PM: Hi guys. "help"
I'm waiting to take delivery of my new Skyway Ta 2013 edition and was just wondering if any other members have purchased one of these framesets and if so what parts would they recommend to use for the build and where to buy.

Many thanks in advance :)

Depends what you're doing with it really, riding, racing, hanging it on the wall?!!? :D

Did you go chrome or white?

First place to start really...what v brake are you fitting? This is area you can't change really, pick one that looks nice and build the other parts round it. Whether you go for a colour or chrome/ silver might make you decide on the other bits. :daumenhoch:
