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! Just like Eddie Fiola had on his bike back in '81 and now!

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!

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. Strength and stiffness allow higher tire pressures than possible with previous composite wheels. These are made with today's better, lighter graphite materials and technology only improving on the legendary Tuff II performance. Identical spoke pattern as the vintage Tuff II's, precision-made.

Features:

  • 3/8" Cr-Mo axles. Front axle is slotted to fit pretty much all eras of BMX forks.
  • 26tpi thread on both axles.
  • Sealed bearings.
  • Graphite composite (Carbon fiber / Zytel nylon mix).
  • Threaded freewheel style. Fits most 16 tooth and larger freewheels. Freewheel NOT included.
  • For tires 20" x 1.75" and wider.
  • Made in the USA.

We STRONGLY suggest the use of Kool-Stop brand brake pads in BLACK for these wheels.

NOW Available in the Freestyle Set — 20" with 3/8" Front axle and Rear with 14mm Rear Axle and 9t Rear Driver. Fits all Freestyle Frames with 14mm Rear Drops like the Torker Racing LP-F, Supercross Passions, Ikonix and others.

Now available in 24" Cruiser sizes as well!

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Skyway Graphite Tuff Wheels?
The original BMX 5-spoke mag wheel — the wheel that defined the entire era of 1980s BMX. Made by Skyway from a proprietary blend of long-strand carbon fiber and Zytel nylon. The Graphite is the gold-anodized hub edition, faithful to the early 80s spec Eddie Fiola ran.

What sizes are available?
20" Race (3/8" front and rear), 20" Freestyle Set (3/8" front, 14mm rear with 9t rear driver — fits Torker LP-F, Supercross Passion, Ikonix and other 14mm-dropout freestyle frames), and 24" Cruiser.

Will they fit my BMX frame?
Race wheels: yes, fits all standard 3/8" dropouts. Freestyle wheels: built for 14mm rear dropouts (Torker LP-F, Supercross Passion, etc.). 24" Cruiser: fits any 24" cruiser frame with 3/8" rear dropout.

What freewheel does it use?
Threaded freewheel style. Fits most 16 tooth and larger freewheels. Freewheel NOT included.

What brake pads should I use?
We strongly recommend Kool-Stop brand brake pads in BLACK for these wheels. The composite surface needs the right compound to brake well.

Are they really made in the USA?
Yes. Made in the USA, using the original early-80s wheel mold for authentic vintage spoke pattern.
