Jason Wharton wins #1 ABA Amateur Title.ДЇirst JMC 16вЂі Pit Bike P16-1 went to Jason Wharton. We made the first red JMC Shadow for Darrell Young July 1981. The frame weighed 3.1 pounds and was eXtra Light. A kid in OK by the name of Matt Raymer came up with the name 3.1-XL. We ran a contest along with Bicycle Harbor of AZ in the ABA paper to name the frame. We called it the Special or Mystery frame to begin with. In May 1980 we made another frame the same size as the Short Standard, only with smaller and lighter tubing. That is when we started putting the K starting the S/N. The first chrome shadow was made in November of 1980.

It was designed for Kim Jarboe, one of the most powerful riders I ever had. In March 1980 we introduced the JMC Black Shadow. We then started calling the short frames Short Standards and the long frames Long Standards.

It was designed for the really small kids.

We sold the bike shop and went full time into the production of JMC frames and forks. We started production on the JMC Tear drop forks. At that time we called them short and long. Clint Miller got the first production long frame JMC20. Dave Wilson got the first production short frame JMC1. JMC XP2 was a long JMC Frame that Harry Leary rode. It was also the first bike to use Sew-Up tires in BMX. JMC XP1 was a short frame that Ronnie West rode. With the help of my great friends Larry Barker, George Erhart, Harry Leary and Dennis Foster we designed and built the first JMC Prototypes. We sold a frame made by Race Inc under the name of JM Special. The Team rode Webcos, FMF, Pedals Ready GT and Race Inc. John was the first member of the team along with Harry Leary, Ronnie West, Don Malone, Lisa Webb, Dennis Foster, Steve West, Clint Miller, Adam Cox, Greg Frechette and David Wilson. John Begin talked me into organizing a team. We really got involved in BMX and organized a Bike shop team. Mostly selling Fenders, gas tanks, grips, number plates and all that good stuff to make your bike look like a motorcycle. The JMC Logo was designed by a good friend of mine and my son. We sold restored bikes and new bicycle parts & equipment. We started restoring old bikes in 1969 out of our home. This information is taken directly from the JMC website that is no longer up.
