How rare are boss parts like 1" stems, bars, etc?
-
i know the boss cranks are pretty rare, saw a boss stem 1 1/8" sell for £3 on bmx-talk (the guy also sold an S&M post for £3 and an S&M racing stem for £8) so im guessing that was a one off
-
THE STEMS ARE BLOODY RARE AS ARE THE BARS - NEVER SEEN THE CRANKS SO ERR YES
-
boss stuff doesn't seem to come up for sale very often , nice tackle though !
-
Boss made great stuff. As early as 84/85.
Got boss bars on my cruiser, always liked the stems, was one up for sale on here a couple of weeks back, cheap too!
-
Here ya go, not sure if it sold.

Oh Nick, those pics remind me that I didn't even take the time to work on the crank decals we chatted about a good while ago ;)

what kind of spindle does it take? cant see jack in that pic. pedal bosses are not full wrap :yahoo_silent:
no idea, just found the item when browsing on ebay, they look like the cheaper stock cranks you'd normally get on low end complete bikes
-
Doesn't really look BOSS...
Think the arms were quite the same shape through the years, only the spindle changes, from 10 spline to a profile-type, 48 one

Thanks to one of my Euro pals I have a NOS set of Boss Pro Bars. I was going to use them on my 'goose until Bof sold me some Renthals. They are for sale if anyone wants/needs them :)
-
mr chevron, thats fookin awesome, :daumenhoch:
dcbmx1 on USebay can get the stems as they are being made again without the boss stamp tho, they are stamped LC i think, they sre being made by the bloke who designed them for Creation who made boss stuff, $69 they are :daumenhoch:

Damn, OD, talk about a BOSS bars fetish !! :4_17_5:
Darren Chan (dcbmx1) is one name that springs to mind when it comes to Boss science
Seen those L&S stems, nice design and different enough not to be confused with the originals

im all boss perved out :LolLolLolLol:
L&S, not L&C :idiot2: was gettin confussed with the creation connection
-
Pretty sure they are Fabweld cranks on the bay. I should hit BIN really as i have some fabweld bars to go with them. Chances of finding a spindle though are zero :'(
-
I have a set of boss freestyle forks if anyone is interested plus the decals ;)
-

I am working with Carlo Lucia (Boss founder and the man who was behind Oakland Boss in the 1980s). We are selling items under the L+S Creation (L+S for Lucia and Son) brand, whch he started in the early 1990s; Steve Veltman was his pro rider and was recently inducted in the ABA BMX Hall of Fame. Carlo has been welding up frames, forks, bars for 20 (race and freestyle), 24, 26. We hope to have freestyle bars done soon. There are also stems and spyders. The stems are threadless and threaded. The frames and forks are retro style and in raw finish. In the winter, I hope that he can make some pit frame and fork sets made in addition to experimenting with the newschool technology. Most recently, we made a short run of frames with an extra bar like the original Champions and Pandas which was later used by Profile.

aye up mr C, i've seen the L&S stuff and it all looks good, the stems are awesome, :daumenhoch: good luck with it all dude, if i was still building i'd have purquired a few new bits from you, i think i've bought approx 3 sets of original boss bars off you already, like glen said, some piccies would be cool :daumenhoch:
-
