Anyone know what happened to JMC?
I'm not sure I can cope in a world without seeing a badly fitted JMC swingarm from time to time. ![]() Any alternative engineering firms took their place? Thanks, Mark |

I did see an curvey SV at Calne bike fiar with a JMC swingarm on, he didn't know it wasn't standard so I told him to do a bit of googling about them

The only alternative that I know of is Metmachex Engineering. However I have no experience of them, nor JMC for that matter.
I also did not know that something has happened to JMC. I can see their site isn't exactly there, but apart from that I've not heard anything? |

I guess enough people found out the swingarms gave more bling bling than a performance upgrade and the sheep herd stopped buying them?
Was that a bit over the limit? I never ment to be mean, just honest. |

Since they stopped making bikes with hinges in the middle in the 1970s/80s most standard swingarms have been more than adequate.
