Julio Fusté Cercós continued to work as a car mechanic and, after closing the production of the Fusté brand, he again began to get involved in motorcycle sport and competition. He built a motorcycle, this time named as a JFC – using his full initials – and entered the La Rabassada Hillclimb, finishing in second place.
From 1930, Fusté produced an unknown number of JFC brand motorcycles up until the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War in 1936 but very few examples appear to have survived. Whilst continuing his work as a mechanic, he manufactured accessories for vehicle bodywork as well as producing brassware for hardware and plumbing use.

At the end of the 1930s, Sr Julio Fusté Cercós disappears from the Barcelona motorcycle scene but only temporarily.
