AT LAST! my T.A done!!!
« on: April 22, 2010, 05:12 PM »
well after all the trails and tribulations and a totally fooked up chrome job its finally done,although this is a differant frameset now,this one was already rechromed,the other is in rehab as we speak!!!!right down to business.
                            The t.a is the one bike i always wanted as a kid,skyway launched it at around the same time that i got into bmx 82/83 so its a bike that was always there right through my bmx days.its taken me 27 years to finally get one and it even kept me waiting around right until the end(until my seat arrived today).absolutely no expense spared on this one,all parts are either nos,minty survivor or restored.thanks to all the radsters who sold me the parts and left me skint!!

parts as follows;
rechromed 1984 frame and forks
rechromed gen 1 hutch pro bars
survivor  polished araya 7x laced to polished bullseye hubs
polished tuf neck stem
polished tuf neck seat clamp
early stamped gt seatpost
nos tange 125 headset
nos oakley b1b's
nos polished skyway pedals
singlepinch,full wrap redline filight crank with bubble script chain wheel
nos dc mx1000 with dc tech 3 lever and dc cable
rainbow label comp 111's
izumi chain
repro padset and gay dice caps!

OK, if your goal was to build something that looks totally fresh from the glory days with top shelf parts, then you can call it a day.
I keep coming back to look at it  :4_17_5:

thanks for the  huge complement,im totally stoked with this build,it was always my intention to build a t.a sometime and probably finish with one but the bug just keeps on biting and there will be more on the way sometime,although at the moment my pocket is still recovering form the shock :LolLolLolLol:
