Title: new mongoose rider / project
Post by: In2 bmx on March 12, 2011, 03:46 PM
Picked this up from the post office yesterday .  :smitten: not seen many of them about. 85 24" pro class cruiser .  :)
 Pro class cranks and stem . ( photos are from when I bought it ) weather has been shite in Manchester for a change  ;D

It's going to be my summer rider until the robbo cruiser is finished then striped and made mint .
I've already managed to get a pair of 24" pro class rims for her  .  ^"^ .

Now then, I could make an exception to the rule of "all cruisers are shite" rule - that is fookin' lush bud.

As for selling it to Jonnygoose, do you think he'd notice if the cranks were missing as they are spectacular bud - I could definitely find a home for them :smitten:
