Awesome build! Always a winning combination of Colors!
Thanks again!
i rocked my tuff whees!!! love them but then i found spokes looked way cooler. ACS z-rims, the flexy ones!!. awesome build here bro!
Thanks! 👍
Im drooling for a skyway!! That looks beyond awesome!!
Thanks 🙏
Hey 👋 Shawn !
I love the new skyway 👌
I m turning 50 this year and let me tell you every time I watch one of your videos is like going back in time a few decades and makes me feel inspired to build bikes and stay young for ever I even trying to go back and try to do some flat land tricks like I used to do in the past 😊😊
Thanks for been so inspiring ❤RBMXB peace ✌️
Heck yeah! That’s rad!!!
Who didn't want a T/A? I new a guy who was sponsored by Skyway back in the late 80's, and by far the best colour combination was a white frame with black tuffs with gold hubs. Great build you did.
I was always a Hutch guy. But have always loved Skyways 😍 I wish the hutch Pro Star would get a release like this.
Wasn't sure about the red tires on red mags but damn that looks rad. Awesome job as always!
I was t sure either but it just works
Yea it looks great. Been thinking of getting the chrome with blue mags and mixing in some red tires 😎
All red POPS!! Looks real good..
The decks on the wall look sick too, glad to see the shop is in its prime!🤙
Gawd! I had a T/A when I was a teenager, but had 1.5 inch Araya spoked rims (SR sealed hubs), Tubular cranks, and Vector/Haro bars. And it had blue tires, seat, and AME grips, with white Skyway pads.
This makes me wanna buy another, SOOOO badly.
Absolutely sick man. I could only dream of a Skyway when I was a boy. I have a new 24 TA that I’m about to build up. Have some new Graphites to go on it as well. Just need to choose the colour of the components. I have a suede Kashimax Aero to go in it as well.
i got 2x 26in built and a 24 in the box all chrome. these bikes ride so damn good, and jump hella easy
Canʻt go wrong with the Skyways but you always add that extra touch to make them stand out even more! Nicely done!
Thank you so much
I dunno why but the red tires works with the red tuffs better then the black tires actually. Gotta say the chrome job on these Skyway frames are always top notch! Well done sir!
👍👍👍👍
Looks killer! Thank you!!!
Let's Do this!🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
🙌🙌🙌
Just watched my 2 favorite channels..Kevin and Bernie and rad bmx !!! ..enjoyed as always man
Awesome! Thank you!
Another incredible build! A+. Thank you & keep being Rad 👍 🎸
Thanks! Will do!
Looks killer, love that chain with the blue and the gum wall tires and the AME grips for the cool contrast they add.
With as much effort that Skyway put into that release I don't think the purchasers of that bike would've complained about an extra $30.00 to "$40.00 to get genuine AME grips and gum wall tires and a front brake in the same color as the rear.
I absolutely agree
Amen
Totally RAD !!!!!!!!!! Love the sprocket you did.... Love the old school decks in the background!! Hate to see you leave AZ but im a native. and summers do BLOWWWWWW.......
didnt notice that hosoi deck!! killer bro i rode them for like a year until i got into alva boards!
Dope bike build Sean!👊
Appreciate it!!
It’s beautiful. The red tuffs with the red tires absolutely scream 80s. Another rad build, for sure 🙌🙌🙌
Came out great!!!!!
I think the second brake is added simply to meet standards in some states.
I’m sure it is
You nailed it
🙌
Sweet! Never seen one of those stands. I was like what is it at first.
I love it!
Awesome. Loving the continued content!!!!
More to come!
Absolutely love it mate!
Thanks a ton!
Of course it looks much better with your "upgrades" ! 🙂👍
Not a big fan of the "stock" pedals, I would change them (but that’s just my opinion !) …
Fair enough!
I’m going to buy one this week. Not sure the color I’m going to pick.
Love my TA. Only thing for me is the rear Tuff wasn't true so swapped out the Tuffs for some nice alloys and red anno hubs.
Right on
Badass! It should have came in the box that way. I would have used red panaracer 406's though for better cruising but man im diggin it! 🤟👍 What does she weight in total now im very curious?
Looks so much better with your changes for sure!!! 😍
I think so too!
Love this build
Me too!
wow, nice throwback! … Your simple mods makes it much nicer … Great Build! …so what do you think about quality of this bike from MFR? … Regarding the package of reflectors; they have to include those by law if sold in the the good old USA
I think it’s a great bike!
Lack tires with your twist. For real though you did a nice job.
Sweet....great job
Thanks 👍
Looks great!
Thanks!
Awesome build brother
Thank you 🙏
Always loved the PKRipper much better!!!
Have you owned both?
@@RadBMXBuilds Yes! I won my 1st National at Waterford Oaks in 82 on a PK RIPPER!!!
@@RadBMXBuildsI always raced GT after they Sponsored me and continued to ride my GT til now!!!
Very nice build. I ordered one of these in chrome/blue. Love it but the braking could use improvement. I'm 50 and weigh 185. Can you please reccommend a brake pad with better grip/ braking force? Willing to change out the Dia Comp MX-1000 also if there are better options.
Try clear brake pads they work great
@@RadBMXBuilds Thank you!
What year is this frame (Originally made)? & What year is this new bike made? & How much did it cost + shipping...? Are the Redline cranks 175mm or 180mm. Would love more info with builds... Thank you! Great stuff! A+ 🎸
That’s a ton of questions
Fun, are you going to ride it? Is it a real race frame or a replica? I don't really remember anyone in my neighborhood having a Skyway, but I kind of remember them, maybe from a magazine or something. Definately awesome, the only downside is it seems more like a replica like those cheap Mongoose Motomags whoever puts out. The old frames and parts still look so much better than the new ones, I just can't help but think that BMX could be huge again if it was done right, whatever is going on now with the official BMX doesn't do anything for me, but the old school stuff is still great.
Rad! ❤💙❤️💙❤️💙
Awesome. Who owns and runs Skyway now, I assume it’s not the same company as back in the day?
Red skyways on red tires. Tbh wouldn’t of been my first choice
But it looks sick
Hi did you check if the brakes had spacers ? i notice on the gold skyway you couldn't get clearance from the frame
I got that seat from PlanetBMX and was really disappointed it was just the standard cheap seat you can get anywhere else for like $25. Cheap skyway label and some guts and they charged me $45. Was described as a Skyway Aero seat. Ripoff.
It’s a Velo seat with Skyway printed on it. Same seat SE uses
I got that gross front brake on my sunday street sweeper.. i think its because they are legally required to sell a bike with 2 brakes.
Yeah it’s trash
Rad 👍
Where did you purchase the aluminum finish redline Chainwheel?
From Japan
Got the exact same bike in same color way. Was so shocked to get fake AME grips on a bike that is quite highly speced out. I mean real ame's or mushrooms are like $10 ish so why nickel and dime over something so trivial. Other than that a great deal. Couldn't build it yourself for anything close to the price they were on sale for. Did you get the polished silver sprocket from Aus or usa?
I got it from a guy in Japan
great looking bike. I was always more of a fan of the freestyle looking bikes though..BUT i wouldnt kick this one out the bed..Wait.??..WHAT?!
Great job as usually!! I would like a help from you if possible...I'm looking for a old school cruise bmx (26 inch). Could you indicate where I can get that?
I have 2 retro 26” on my website
@RadBMXBuilds Yes, I saw! But a wanna with skyway weels like the 80s
@@flaviocoutinho6503 skyway doesn’t make 26” wheels
Actually I don't know which is better for me, 24" or 26"". My height is 5.57ft. Which do you think would be best for me?
Now!
Mine is in transit now... I caught the lube on the pedals you did. Any other parts that needed lubed when you put together? I haven't put a bike together in 25 years...LOL
Anything with threads
Want one black and chrome front and rear mx1000 brakes
Black mags..how do I get
You buy from a bike shop like PorkChop BMX
I wanted to preorder one of those. But life kept happening
he took a sad unfortunate turn. is he still in prison? he's in my prayers
Money
Honestly all red looks shit,plus i would have left the black chain ring on it to.
Hahaha okay
