Azuza are a retro company..They remade classic frame and forks from the likes of SE and JMC, hence the similar decals..It's all a nod to those historical designs, using modern geometry etc...

and it should be noted that it was done with the approval of both JMC and SE.

Azusas were made in very limited numbers by Supercross, as was the Skunkworks Quad and the Nomorea. I think the forks were JMC AP and Bottema knock offs.

...or something along those lines ;D

You're spot on Mike it is a Jad but it's had two bars welded into the original frame.  Weighs in at a whopping 31 lbs, well it would with half a scaffold tube on it, but has hydraulic brake and this one had Technique cranks and a Chris King headset.  Bit of a throw together but very funtional.  The owner is registered on here so it'll be interesting if he spots this and fills in the story for us.  Humps

It was the 2 extra tubes that threw me.

Carbon forks and alloy cranks and it still weighs 31lbs  :uglystupid2:

They're Boss Cruiser bars, they're not as high as they look but do have a bigger rise than most cruiser bars I've seen.
