That's pretty much what I was getting at - all be it long windedly  :-[ :LolLolLolLol:

Although theres also the coaster / caliper brake element to it too  ;)

I guess I'm throwing into the mix a possibility of the existence of a mongoose II AND a mongoose 2

The first being the spec difference the second one being the decal style & postion change + possibly serial number type (and dare I throw it in the mix - dropouts  :-\ )

Hey guys,

I've been reading this thread with interest... so I'll just throw a curve at ya!

I don't know jack about Mongoose but as a graphics designer for 26 years I would maybe suggest that whether it's a II or a 2 is just a typographical design change the manufacturers decided to implement into their literature and not necesserly a model change.

.... just a thought  :daumenhoch:
