No, it has the correct Chimp decals .. they are quite similar to the Changas ...

It is supposed to be, but the more i look at it i'm not so sure .. the guy had it for a good few years and never did anything to it. I have never seen the og chrome finish on a VDC though so not sure of the quality.

They changed the design due to this model breaking apparently, to a full down-tube ..... http://bmxmuseum.com/bikes/vdc/18001
