Title: 1980 supergoose 1 [FINISHED]
Post by: bobafett on August 11, 2011, 01:13 AM: Finished this just in time for MK but didn't get a chance to stick a thread up, so here it is :laugh:

Completed my US supergoose trio with this (just need to finish my UK supergoose 3 now for the set ;) )

Had the frame for about 2 1/2 years now, slowly gathering the correct parts.

It's pretty much factory spec - the traps aren't quite exact, should be MKS BM1s but they're BM5s and I opted for the rarer hi-rise (race inc manufactured) mongoose alloy bars over the standard rise ones since they were a catalogue option anyhows ;)

So here's the spec.......

February 1980 supergoose 1 frame and correct large steerer boss team forks in original finish (new decals)
Araya 7c rims (re-ano'd)
NOS shimano cassette hubs
NOS Cheng Shin C183 knobblies Fat/Thin
mongooce/race inc hi-rise alloy race bars (re-ano'd)
NOS clear winner's circle grips
Shimano tourney calipers n levers
Alloy seat post (re-ano'd)
NOS mongoose messinger seat
mongoose gold stem
mongoose seat clamp
mongoose headset
mongoose spider (original gold finish)
shimano chain ring
mongoose 175 chr-mo crank
MKS BM5 pedals
Ultra rare Gen1 BMX Products mongoose "wet look" pad set

Original 79/80 catalogue piccy.......
