Today’s Bike Of The Day is a sick yellow 2018 GT Speed Series with black Skyway Tuff Wheels. The bike also features a cool Oakley pad set to complete the retro vibe of the bike. I love how Tuff Wheels enhances a bike’s looks. Jason Deming is the owner of this awesome build and it’s not just built for looks, Jason races this bad boy too!
About:
“My son started BMX racing in Donny Robinson’s BMX racing league in Napalast year. I was able to race in the parents Moto. So I built the bike I always wanted when I was a kid. GT was king in the 80’s.
We moved to open racing, I’m the only one who races with Skyways. They are heavy and flex but it’s fun to ride and I think they look cool. I use it for practice mostly and some racing. All the oldschool guys compliment it when they see it. Kids thinks it’s cool too cuz they have never seen them haha. Skyway should make 1 1/8 wheels for the kids.
I have a 2019 GT as well when I want to seriously compete.” ~Jason Deming
