Title: brake rotation devices
Post by: Philbert on January 20, 2008, 11:16 PM: does anyone remember the jimjam gyro from about 96ish it was overshadowed by the fishbone ufo at the time. rare as fook. just thought it'd be good for a midschool build!

made by two guys, jamie coplin and jim something. really nicely engineered!

Jim came in selling them as i recall, not very good but better than that Fishbone piece of crap!

Didn't they have a Ride ad?......

Post by: Philbert on January 20, 2008, 11:44 PM: they were way better than the fishbone. fishbone were just a bigger company with more money available for marketing

hence being overshadowed. shame really!
