holy grail bikes change. that ju-6 on vintage looks like a rare thing to own.

Brian Hays had a JU-6 on ebay about 4 months ago, not sure if it sold? I think he wanted about £1500 for it? I think he sold all his collection, including his Nomura, which I bought

made by Race-inc for SE I think - pre-SE Racing PK Ripper, same design but with no gusset - very very rare., circa 1979 ?

JU stands for Jeff Utterback

i'll try and find a pic

Quote

SE Racing's history started over 35 years ago in 1970. That’s when teenage entrepreneur, Scot Breithaupt began promoting "Pedal-Cross" races in Long Beach, CA. This was considered the birth of organized BMX racing. Soon afterwards, he created a sanctioning body with a points system, governed rules, and regulations.

After capturing the first ever National BMX Title in 1976, Scot started his own BMX company named “SE Racing.” Seeing as it was his own company, he named it after himself. The “SE” stands for Scot Enterprise. The first signature bike was the JU-6 named for Jeff Utterback, a factory hotshoe, who had been with Scot through several of his earlier sponsors. The STR-1 (now known as the Quadangle) was designed for Stu Thomsen. Next up was the GH Flyer mini designed for a young Greg Hill.

Shortly after the release of his signature frame, Jeff Utterback left SE to ride for his Dad's company GJS. The JU-6 was rechristened the P.K. Ripper named after Perry Kramer. Over the years, the P.K. Ripper became the most sought after BMX bike of all time.
