Just before dinner tonight I fitted a gorgeous Takagi bb, mongoose opc and Sugino 40t snowflake to my minigoose. I had to search the garage for the opc because I had a recent tidy up and forgot where I put it. I now have the same issue with the original brakes that came with the frame set, I'll hunt for them tomorrow evening or over the weekend, wish me luck because I have already had one attempt during my recent tidy up.
The goose is looking how I want it, a decent rider fistblump

ok, you spiked my interest Toby: "goose", "snowflake", "mongoose opc". Have I missed something. I went off looking for a thread, but not seeing anything my friend, even read through all three pages of this thread. Come on my friend, share more :popcorn:, lol.

Hello Pete, so just under two years ago I snagged a tidy late 1984 minigoose frame set with short reach Lee chi brakes and mongoose headset. It was located in France, I scored the mongoose crank from the same seller a week later. It's been half built up and stripped down a few times to make room for other builds. I thought it was time I showed it some love. This will be the wife's ride if she wants it. The current spec and progress is >
OG Mongoose headset
Nos 2 piece chrome bars from bankrupt bike parts
Used Chang Star levers
Nos Landar cobra grips
Used Nitto mx5 stem
Used San Marco saddle
New Nitto seat post
Used SR seat clamp
Nos Mitsuboshi comp III's
Nos Panaracer tubes
Used Ukai 20x 1 3/8 rims
Nos Asahi spokes
Used Suzue hubs
Nos Takagi bb
Used Mongoose crank
Nos Sugino 40t snowflake from bankrupt bike parts
Used SR SP468 pedals
I need to find the calipers, cables and blocks, freewheel and chain all hiding in the garage. I didn't get around to starting a build thread but it should be finished soon and shared on here.
Thanks for your curiosity fistblump
