That is simply stunning Joff, it must be a 1980 with the large Winners Choice seat tube decal. I considered a factory build but I'm mixing it up a bit... Its going to be blue and yellow too  :)

Candy blue is the only colour a gusset Goose should be, end of :yahoo_silent:

Jaan:
So how bloody stupid am I?

Spen rightly pointed out that this was sold to me as a standard Mongoose and not a 100% chromoly Team model.

I can only assume that I've played Chinese whispers with myself whilst it was stored to the point where I didn't even think to look at the rear stays!!!

So I've come this far, what to do, what to do...

They look like 81 motomag 1" forks as well Chris, early 79 motomag's had black astabula forks and later 79 had Tange pinch forks up to Feb 81.
Your forks look to be motomag March 81 onwards.
Still build it, what month 79 is it ? Is it a CE9 ?
It would look great in that candy blue with black ashtabula forks
