Made in the U.K. and look very similar to the Metmachex arms. Don't know if they're still in business or suffered the same fate as JMC.

Not alloy, made of steel, The one in the photo has new paint and stickers, from a member of the CBX site, great guy to deal with, I bought a JMC from him, arrived in just a few days from the UK.

IMO, a braced arm without side braces attaching the lower brace mid way in the arm is just braced for looks.

True dat Jim. Any benefit to torsional rigidity would be marginal at best. This one look much better.

Don, you should just mail that arm to me! Or better yet, send your brother. I could learn a lot from him, I'm sure of it.
Peace, Jim |
