I think the decals, althought the same design as SE Racing, actually say JC Racing - don't they? ???

I think so. I haven't actually seen the frame close up. I told JC I'm staying out of this one. I've done my bit for the forks.  :10_2_12:

He does have his own stickers. You can buy repro bottema stickers from bmxmuseum. I have sets in every color.

I forgot to mention, all the forks are sold raw. It's up to the customer to finish them however they need them.

Check this. My mate was about to buy a JC quad f&f off the bay when he got this new school one as a complete bike for the same price!
http://cgi.ebay.com/24-Quad-old-school-new-school-cruiser-AWSEOME_W0QQitemZ270102445820QQcategoryZ64644QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

According to the seller... This is what SE should have made but never did. It is a HAND MADE frame (Made by Sal the welder, the same guy who made all the real SE frames back in the day) completely built with all of the best old school and new school parts. You will never see another 24" bike this nice again! There were only 4 or 5 of these frames built.It was built with top notch components such as Kashimax seat, GT post, Hershey clamp, FIT stem, King headset, Landing Gear forks, GT bars, AME grips, AC brakes, Shimano DX lever, Terrycable brake cable, Atom Lab rims, REAL old school Bullseye hubs, (not newer ones with a old school sticker, these are the real deal) Snakebelly up front and a Comp 3 out back, Red Line dual pinch Flight cranks (180mm), Red Line sprocket and DX pedals. Everything was NOS when installed except for the hubs which have new bearings and axles. This bike rides better then ANY other 24" cruiser I have ever ridden. I am 6'3" and it fits me well and handles very nicely on the track. The frame alone cost $1200.00 and I have well over $2000.00 in this bike.

I reckon my mate got a bargain and this is a great looking old school / new school cruiser... what are you guys saying?  :-\

i think you would be so gutted if you got some kos bars, paid top dollar, get em, get your magnet out and nothing, it doesn't stick. :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

the quad is nice and a good idea, build something that doesn't exist, but if the bars and forks are special enough to want to copy then the originals must be worth protecting.
