i very much doubt this is a mongoose of any sort

MBK did indeed build bikes under licence for Mongoose / Mongoose UK (Ammaco)
there is a review in BMX Bi-weekly Vol 3 iss 18
that states as much I'll post some shots in a moment

a copy in here https://sites.google.com/site/kdw712osbmx/mongoosescans-html but since the demise of photobucket its a bit pants
and originals are on another hard drive

kdw712:
see attached (with luck)

GooseJuice:
Thanks for the info!! I actually came across someone who's had a few of these now.

This gets more interesting as you dig away

the Grand Prix frame set is a great match and wasn't a USA bike so
pushes back to Europe and MBK

the drops on this are different though and as the std m'goose's of the time.

It could be a another variant

the UK supergoose was discussed at length a few years ago on here
and decided that the

US spec was large dia tubing 
UK spec was standard dia tubing

this maybe something new yet again assuming its all chromoly tubing and not just main frame ?

Any one got a MBK catalogue scanned?

GooseJuice:
It's such a weird one isn't it. Strip away the decals and it looks identical to an Expert, so you have to ask what ever made it classified as a Super?!?!
