Goose update

(1/4) > >>

pickle:
Right my mate gave me his old Goose at the weekend, it was in a bit of a state but nothing too bad........





so last night the Mrs went off to the Gym so i had a bit of a play with it, i know it needs quite a bit more TLC but it's coming along nicely  :)





but he also gave me the wheels he had which after a little clean up are reet nice! Rigida rims? not seen too many of these before? i think they're pretty cheap looking at the hubs but they run true and spin forever! also the rear has a Mongoose stamped freewheel so i'm guessing they came on the bike?




I need a set of forks for it though, so if anyone has any knocking about please send me a PM  :daumenhoch:  oh and should i get a new set of Decals or just leave it as it is? 

pickle:
Mods you can move this if you want to Tech and restoration......sorry i posted it in the wrong bit  :idiot2:

pickle:
and if anyone can date it from the serial number of M4-D7468 i'd be mighty gratefull  :daumenhoch:

MartyC:
Either Oxalic Acid or the Coke and foil trick will bring that up nicely  :daumenhoch:.

Wheels look OK, shame about the steel hubs.  Some wire wool on the spokes and they will clean up nicely  :daumenhoch:.

pickle:
yeah the steel hubs look cheap and nasty but they spin forever!  i'm gunna try the old coke and foil first but i'm not looking to get it back to show condition.....survivor will be good enough  :daumenhoch:

just need some decals now and a pad set  :daumenhoch:
