RAD (The Movie) Cru Jones Bike Build

How did I miss this!?!?!? i was into BMX before RAD even came out :lol Tom, Osborn's signature series bikes were one of th' Holy Grails of BMX to me anyways beautiful bike. SF great job brinin' Cru's bike to life. :cool
 
Great build. I've got 5 bikes on BMX Museum too...I love that place. I'm a member of OzBMX, Retro Goose and RAD too :)

You seen AusBMX's replica of Nicole Kidman's '83 Supermax?
 
I love this!!!

I really want to find a mid 90's 24 Mongoose Menace to do a larger Cru Jones replica.

And I still want the Malvern Star from BMX Bandits.
 
So this project has been a long time coming (25years in the Making? Lol) I remember when I was young watching this cult class BMX Movie called RAD, It shortly became my Favorite Movie as a kid and I dreamed of one day owning "that bike" one Christmas I got a bike close to it (A Mongoose Mini) but never got the real thing.


Now that I have had the resources and time I figured I'd attempt the Build, I honestly had no idea how HARD parts where to find for this Bike and how costly it would be.........Boy was I in for a Big Surprise.


So here goes! The Start to Finish of my "CRU JONES" Bike Build!

Would you be willing to share your parts list and possibly how much it cost you to complete the build?!

Sorry for hijacking, I had to throw my Captain America GT in the pot.
I have own over 50 bikes. Most of which were BMX, 2 Super Goose and a Mongoose pro.
There are tons of retro BMX forums where you can acquire parts for this. Best of luck, can't wait to see the finished product...
