Ok, forgive me for being very very dumb here

but they are spitting images of JMC's. Were they produced after the JMC by the same company and if so are they more affordable.

Cause man i'm liking them both big style.

lazychubs · « **Reply #8 on:** June 22, 2008, 06:16 PM »

i think they are copies of a jmc done by supercross

They were a retro/repro tribute frame, made in small numbers, with the blessing of Jim Melton.

That is sweet. There was a fella who came down to Braintree a few time to race who had one. He sold it a while back, I would have had it if I had the cash at the time. They are lovely looking bikes

mines moved on abit since that pic just a couple of silly bits to sort now
1/2 link for the chain
a brake cable

and on mine the forks seem to be a tad oversized on the outside
and under bore on inside
as fitting a stem was a norman nightmare
and then the starnut would noot bind and grip
so i need a stem lock thing that passes right though the lot

perry · « **Reply #19 on:** June 22, 2008, 08:59 PM »

cool , would love a pic

mine needs

spokes
stem
32 hole front hub
rear 36 hole rim
cranks or a ring for my middleburns
chain
bars
cable
tyres
grips
lever

my bikes share a fsa conix

http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx'modelID=66

which ive had for 8 years now , just need a 6mm . no hammering like those star nuts and not as heavy as a full stem lock ( plus the ones ive seen can only be fitted with the wheel out

stuntmaster · « **Reply #20 on:** June 22, 2008, 09:00 PM »

i get a pic of mine up tommorrow .mine original red paint and love it . they only made 24 of them back in 2002 i think , they did them before they did the nomorea project and bill ryan ie supercross did them . enjoy it ryan as sweet

ron burgundy · « **Reply #21 on:** June 22, 2008, 09:05 PM »

Fantastic looking bikes, JMC AP tribute type thing, I remember Graham bringing his 20" to the track in Hartlepool years back, very nice

Was it this frame sets that caused all the stink i.e. Supercross/Mexico? or something along those lines...
