Metmachex or JMC deep braced swinging arm

[Mike_P]

I'm looking for a Metmachex or a JMC deep braced alloy swinging arm for my 1979 Jota 180.
They aren't everyones cup of tea i know and yes i know the standard swinging arm works fine, but they are of that era and i personally like them.
If anyone has one gathering dust on a shelf somewhere that would consider selling I'd be very interested in having a chat...many thanks
Cheers Mike

Thanks, I’ve tried the search button but it won’t search for JMC as it reckons the word is too short

Search tip....
Search via Google (or your favourite search engine) and look for laverdaforum and jmc. There are other ways but this is simple enough.

Exsmple...

I think it might've been John Marchment's that you were thinking of, Steve, but it's already sold.

Thanks guys, that google search option does work fine thanks Haggis. It sounds like I missed that recent one sadly…the search continues !

Metmachex are still in business, have you tried contacting them? Just a thought.

Thanks yes I've bought direct from them a few times over the years and contacted them in September last year for one of my other bikes (78 cbx1000z) and they didn't reply. I managed to find a really nice used one for the cbx. I know the business has changed hands, it was part time for a while but now it seems back to full time. They have also changed the setup i.e. moved away from the eccentric adjusters to slotted so the height changing issue is resolved. I would prefer an original older one i.e. eccentric if i can find one....the height issue doesn't concern me
