MJM Mobile started back in 1978 as an idea in the mind of a 12 year old boy...
At a whopping 78 lbs. I was too heavy to ride my little brother's plastic Green Machine, period. The warning sticker on the neck left no room for debate.
...I was heartbroken.
Fast-forward to 2004 - I'm an engineer and metal fabricator now with my own shop. It was at this time I started working on my first cycle designs.

After two prototypes were built the limits of the rear swing-axle steering became painfully obvious.
To get adult level performance in the turns meant risking a roll-over.


After three major design revisions and several more prototypes later we arrived at the design we still use to this day:

..The V3 PowerSlide™ frame

 

Our stunt trikes are built tough to stand up to the harsh demands of the bike rental industry and stunt riders alike. For these reasons most of the welding is done using the FCAW (Flux Core Arc Welding) method. This method provides an excellent weld that is as strong as the original steel while adding more material to the weld pool for additional strength.

Before welding any two pieces of steel together, the pieces must first be cut, shaped to fit perfectly, and prepared for welding. This process is called fabrication and takes the most time. To handle this task quickly (with professional results) we use a number of special metal working tools...

Bending tube and square shaped stock

The pride of the shop is our new bender by Pro Tools, a PRO-105! This bender can make tight 180 degree turns out of any size tube without kinking or mis-shaping the tube ANY. Ideal for making; Roll Cages, Awning Frames, Bike Racks ...ANYTHING!

Fitting tubes together

To fit tubes to one another at any angle while maintaining maximum strength a tube notcher is used. Less concerned fabricators will simply crush the end of one tube in a vise to make them fit. This leaves large gaps, and makes the joint weaker than a properly fabricated one.
