Title: Skyway Tuff 1 and Tuff 2
Post by: greentoad on February 17, 2006, 03:00 PM
Hi all

What is the difference between Tuff 1's and 2's? Did they all have the Skyway Logo and a serial number?

Any pictures would be appreciated of the wheels and hubs.

Any help please?

Thanks

J.

no....tuffs twos had metal, alloy and plastic hubs.

tuff 1's only came in a plastic hub.....they do look slightly different too, the spokes look a thinner profile....and both 1's and 2's had patent numbers and were stamped skyway

Tuff 1's also came in stamped and none stamped. I think the older (first) models came unstamped. Not 100% sure though.
