Skyway BMX 20" Tuff Wheels GRAPHITE Carbon Fiber wheelset GOLD ALLOY FLANGE HUBS

Description: To help celebrate Skyway's 50th year of being in business back in 2013, the guys over at Skyway dusted off their old wheel rivet machine that had sat in storage since 1985! It's been a decade now since that time, and due to popular demand, Skyway just made another very small run of these wheels! These Skyway Retro-Flange Edition Tuff Wheels feature hand-made and machined alloy flanges with a throwback look to the classic "Campy-style" hubs from the early 80's! These hubs feature precision sealed bearings for years of maintenance-free use that will roll on and on! These hubs are gold anodized, like ALL classic Graphites are. The wheels themselves are made using the very same wheel mold from the early 80's! You don't get much more "retro" than that! About Skyway GRAPHITE Tuff Wheels- Skyway's Graphites are molded from a proprietary blend of long-strand CARBON FIBER and ZYTEL NYLON. This blend produces a wheel far stiffer than any composite wheel on the market. These wheels put the power to the ground yet take the abuse of hard landings without having to true your spokes after every ride. This strength and stiffness also allow the use of higher tire pressures than possible with previous composite wheels. These are NEW and made with todays better, and lighter graphite materials not to mention better technology only improving on the legendary Tuff II performance you've come to expect from Skyway. Identical spoke pattern as the vintage Tuff II's, but precision made! Features 3/8" cr-mo axles. Threaded freewheel style. Fits most 16 tooth and larger freewheels. Freewheel NOT included. We STRONGLY suggest the use of Kool-Stop brand brake pads in BLACK for these wheels. Specs:For tires 20" x 1.75" and wider3/8" Cr-Mo axles.
