The classic Skyway ad from b.i.t.d had the chrome T.a frame-set, white Tuffs and C.w bars. So I'd say C-dubs...  G.  :daumenhoch:

All the Skyway riders rode CW's originally
Andy Patterson, Bob Medrano Mike Salido
They look good on a T/A for that reason

but the Skyway race bars are  :4_17_5:

That's exactly why I'm in a quandry   :crazy2:

I'll save you some time Christian with some pics of both to look at, street thrashin replica up top, xl below. I can't decide either, depends what components you chuck at it I suppose. XL IMO looked a bit shit there so the CW's win but it's been tamed down a lot since, a more discreet race bike with ukai's, more blue anno, blue kashi and a plate. Fook knows , both look alright in the flesh, depends on what style you build it would swing the decision for me. Bung the rest of the parts on and play about.  If it's your XL your building the extra inch is quite noticable, it will look like a big bugger with the CW's on.
