I was caught by surprise this weekend when I spotted the teaser photos of the yet-to-be released, limited edition, “BLACK GOLD” 24-inch T/A frame, fork and bar combo.
The parts are powder coated in black with a gold sparkle clear coat.
(Which you can see better in this closeup of the fork below.)
The gold sparkle is supposed to give the kit components a cool look in the sun (I guess we’ll have to see more photos to make that call).
Anyway, a pretty interesting departure from a company that counts old-school aficionados as their bread and butter.
I wonder what old-school purists will think about this move by Skyway…heck, I’m still getting my head around the idea of a Skyway T/A frame powder coated black (not to mention, the gold sparkles!).
What do you think?
Looks pretty cool when can i get one!
The story behind these was there were a few white frame kits that had paint blemishes from the factory and these were redone in a very limited run.
PlanetBMX.com carries them.
Sweet!
Looks SICK !!!
