1983 JMC Racing Shadow
1983 JMC Racing Shadow
Saved from the trash
I pulled this bike from the trash complete minus seat and post. Cleaned it up a bit and swapped some things around to get it rideable. I entered it in the old school bike show at Akron BMX this June and much to my surprise, it took first place in the 1983-85 category.
I do plan on swapping the bars and wheels once I find something a little more suitable.
JMC Shadow frame
JMC Andy Patterson fork
generic headset
DK stem
S&M CCR handlebar
Shimano DX lever
Oury grips
Jim Melton reproduction pads
generic lay back post
GT seat
generic cable
MX901 brake
Odyssey System 2000 crank
Suntour XC-II pedals
Sealed cartridge BB
Sugino spider
Tuf-Neck 45t chain ring
Sumo rims with KT hubs (until I rebuild the Araya/Suzue wheels that were on it)
Cheng Shin knobby front/Comp III style rear

Great save but why doesn't something like that happen to me?!
Check out my 1983 VDC-built Trident, 1983 Kuwi Laserlite, 2010 GT Ultrabox 2, 2011 Crupi race rig and prototype Quamen, plus the all things Crupi & old school scene in Japan threads. Always interested in buying used, mid-school race plates and pads - UGP, Knucklebone, Lizard Skins, Pryme and the like, me like!!
