Schwinn DeCoster picked up today...

<< < (2/4) > >>

Jaan:
The DeCoster fork has welded drops, they're pretty recognisable but i'm fairly confident that they weren't around in the 70's



Yours look like Tange 1200 pinched forks which i think Mongoose fitted from '79, if yours is a '78 and you're interested in "era correctness" then fit black non stamped Ashtabula forks.

chubby:
Have fond memories of roger & nookie the bear  :teef:

NORTY40:
Cool frame  8)

Looking forward to seeing the progress on this .


Chris ...... yours is one hell of a nice bike   :coolsmiley:

snoopy72:
77 and early 78 decosters had non stamped ashtabula forks that were braced at the top
78 onwards were supergoose style picture above with no drilled hole for a caliper.
I think personally i like them with the ashtabula forks, cast black and tuf 1's  :daumenhoch:

Just to say that Decoster forks were available in 76' Chris & seen on Mongooses at that time.They were availble through BMX Products then & team riders used them.  :daumenhoch:
