Title: Tuff dates
Post by: Mattdub on March 26, 2007, 05:22 PM: Described as NOS (New Old Stock) but they look to be current Tuffs , is there a way of dating recent ones ?

Post by: Stodgy on March 27, 2007, 11:50 AM: Yep, definately the new ones made last year.

I had some of them on that Haro I built, the blue is perfect...but Pete has got them now for a rider...

Post by: brass monkey! on March 27, 2007, 11:56 AM: they be new and not that cheap !

you can decent pair of metal hubbed ones for that, the sealed Tuff's do run smoothly though, a must for a rider IMO....

It would be very interesting to know the dates that each type of Skyway were introduced, starting with the Tuff 1's
