Mongoose Motomag?

That Takara is as cool as fook  :daumenhoch:

yes, it's nice isn't it. I notice that it has the same hole drilled through the chainstay/seattube box area - my copy Motomag has that too, and I don't think it was done by an owner. Motomags don't have it I notice...

Some do some don't have this hole.

I think it's for a side/kick stand as some can be squashed from over tightening.

I'm sure I've heard that bitd parents would ask the bike shop to drill the hole when new so a stand could be fitted.

This hole has stopped me buying some motomag frames in the past as I don't like them

Jim71:
yes, the copy frame I have has clearly had an overtightened stand on it  :(
