You posted some fantastic bikes...but this is my fave so far. The bars being a big reason. Most bmx cruisers/strandies/klunkers/etc have pretty low bars, but I like running 8.5" to 10" bars on mine as it not only 'feels' better (comfort and control) to me...but it takes me back to being a kid on a bmx bike that feels big.

Those CW(-style) bars look great on that Littlejohn, and I bet they feel great too :thumbsup:,

Somewhere out there is a snob who could tell you for certain. If they're knockoffs, they seem to be good quality knockoffs...

They were so popular for a while, that there were many, many, copies. As far as I know the only way to get a good idea is to weigh them (CW used thin-thinwall cromo) and diamond knurling as opposed to straight knurling.

Jason (not a brand snob...but, definitely a bit of a cromo snob with weight weenie tendencies :happy:)

Beautiful bike! Do you have any specifics on this bike? Like, frame, what parts you used, etc.
