I can tell you lots about my bikes, but they are not cbr's     LOL - sorry could not resist !!

late 70's stuff, they were a respectable company and their gear seems to fetch a premium with the Americans but as with most of the earlier gear the collectors are few and far between here. JMC and Mongoose aside.

 Reilley1 is our resident 70's mogul.

from this thread: http://www.vintagebmx.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=020530#000000

go over to vintage and search for cook brothers

also search for "cook bros"

Here are some cranks produced by the cook brother's after they sold the company in 1984/85 ish.



Marketed under the name Cook's rather than Cook Bros they did not produce these for very long because the new owner took them to court over design rights.

(and now that I look at these again, I don't know what posessed me to sell them)
