Mongoose Repro Grips - V - Mongoose Originals

(1/1)

bobafett:
Noticed a few posts regarding the new Mongoose repro grips available via Ebay from B.M.X. Products and thought I'd start a specific topic for discussion - I have purchased all 3 available colours (Red,Blue Black) and I am very pleased - I have shown them here next to my original 80's NOS yellow ones and i think they are pretty fookin good - anyone else bought some of these ? any comments ?

Frosty:
I can't remember if they are marking them as reproductions or not? Any marks on them?

They will be very good because (as far as I recall) are using the old molds.

They have an "R" stamped on them to denote that they are the new issue



are they repops if they are from the same original moulds ?

Mine arrived about a week after i placed my order not bad at all from the states - i've had things take a month before  :tickedoff:

They do have a tiny R molded on the inside rim where theoriginals say 7/8" and i would say the whole grip is about 2mm longer (dunno why ?) other than that they're perfect - look and feel lovely  :smitten:
