Spokes or Skyways
Wheels are Araya Aeros laced to Sunshine hubs (2nd Gen)
Skyways are 2nd Gen Campy Skyways

I like tuffs but on a jmc gotta be spokes

Never heard of JMC back In the 80s round ours, but all the bikes I knew had mags. Get mags, skyway mags!

Spokes for me Chris :daumenhoch:
Hubs are cool 8)

I love skyways, but it has to be spokes!

Araya and spokes :daumenhoch:

I like the Black Frame with the Black Tuffs :-\

Needs chrome wheels.

Needs chrome wheels.
I did grab the Arayas from Rich (Waxin) solely for the hubs thinking that I'd lace them to chrome rims but the black Aeros looked pretty good.... However I think you're right.

Just ship it to me...i got some wheels for it :)

Watch this space, I might be selling one of my Black Shadows ;)

I've opted for spokes - the Sunshine hubs laced to chrome UKAIs but whilst they're being built (by Nitrohopper) and just to wind up the mag haters, enjoy the pic >:D

::) ......... and that's why you opted for spokes Chris :P
That will be one hell of a bike with the Chrome Ukai's on :coolsmiley:

Looks "heavy" doesn't it? :buck2:
-

Yep ! This is going to be a perfect example of how a set of wheels can transform a bike imo .
Im a massive spokes fan though , I have 30 sets of wheels here and only two set's of those are alloy hubbed tuffs :D
It's a stunning bike though Chris :smitten:

They're 2nd Gen Campys. In truth I built it with Skyways a while back and it didn't feel right. Lee's finished the wheels so i'll get them fitted soon and we'll see the difference :)
-
Damn that bike is just beautiful Tuffs or not. Had to be graphites. It looks at home a freestyler like that but on balance you're all right about the spoked wheels. Think it even better fitting skinnys jus like the Birmingham Wheels squad BITD. It'd look n feel well light and the balance of the force will be restored.

Try it on 2 x 1.75s instead of a fattie up front. I had the same issue on the TA and running two thinnies made all the difference.

Skyways are destined for another build Bertrand, although I will experiment with other tyre options...

So chrome rims seem to be the way forward

Get it in BOTM ;)

You could compromise and put the Skyway on the front and the Araya on the back, Vic Murphy style! :daumenhoch:

I'm sticking to the chrome UKAIs for this one bud :daumenhoch:

I'd like to see a 1.75 on the front not a fattie! Then perfect. Lovely.

It is a 1.75 bud - I changed from the Mitsuboshi tyres to Knarler Knobby's in a 1.5 / 1.75 configuration ;)

Ahhh. Good work. From the piccy it did look like you'd gone for normal configuration. I'll go outside and whip myself harshly!

Looking superb so far....
Apologies for all the previous offensive comments over the years; the exorcism was successful & I have made a full recovery.

I hate to do this Rich, but I really must question the spiritual credentials of Bob Carolgees and Wee Jimmy Krankie.

Hey Chris
The bike looks great.
It's brilliant that we are seeing bikes like this on such a wonderful site.

I've spent an age trying to work out what's not to love with this, but I think I've worked it out - I think the grips look wrong, chuck a pair of plain black on it ;)
