26” wheel, aluminum looptails with sausage cut, capped end forks.

Black one's awesome.

Very cool! (though I prefer the red one as it looks more bmxie )

What is the top tube length on the red one, if you don't mind?

edit - the more I look at them...the more I like them

Red one is 21.5” CTC on the top tube. Black is 23.25”ish.

I think I have 5 of these at the moment. I buy em during the fall/winter and fix em up and sell em in the spring.

If you guys are interested in them as is, I can list some in the for sale section.

Thanks for the measurements. Can't buy now...but, I may hit you up later .

My BO11 was based on a steel one...

That was a very flamboyant build . I've never seen one in person, and find it funny that in NJ they can evidently be scooped up in bulk during the winter .

Yep. They are made by Jamis which I thought was a national distributed brand? They've been making these forever (still make em) and I can almost buy and sell them at will. We live along the shore and these are pretty much a prerequisite for living here.

Electras are the hot thing here now so these are getting cheap. I flip ‘em to grownups who think $350 is ridic for a electra and remember these as cool when they were younger...

It isn't the distribution that makes them a rarity. Contrary to popular belief, there isn't much of a bike scene here (in Oregon)...and most of what is here beyond walmart bikes are mountain bikes. There is a bit of a bike culture in parts of Portland and Bend...but, the vast majority of bicycle riders I see on a daily basis are the homeless, and they aren't riding cool Boss cruisers .

I get a lot of these too. Not as cool but still cool.

Pretty much the same as the Earth Cruisers
