Working on my build slowly and was just trying to work out the decals that will go on the Goose TrickStar
Now cos it's got a stand on the bottom tube to seat tube, it cuts down the size that a original decal will fit on to - does any body know the size of a bottom decal for a team goose ?
if i don't go for original decals - any thing else ?

Second part is the chain ring ?
with all the top parts that were on this ride - the chain ring doesn't look top ? but am i wrong and it be some thing that i haven't seen before ?
teeth look press cut one side and machine the other - so was it as back in the day, some thing found and made to work or is it some company that some one knows ?

if you don't get original decals, how about Mongstar :LolLolLolLol:
-
it was first known as the Frankingoose when i got it ;)
just don't know if a different font would work
still like to put original decals on it - if some one can tell me a size ::)

What's the story behind this 'Mongstar' then B? ???
-
bought it with a load of stock from a old store owner in essex
this is how it came and no history to why he had it - he just did ?
seems to be a team goose with extra bits !
it seems to have been professionally weld up and even with metal end caps
some top parts on it
so some one in the game knew how to weld / got it weld by a company / made a one off
you would think that some one would know this bike from the way it looks - and why it was made
it's not a prototype as far as we know
was more likely made for some one who was well into there bmx and by some one who know bmx's well
but that is all i know ???

You'd imagine it did the rounds near Essex, if you saw that bitd, you wouldn't forget it! Be great if you uncovered some background on it. Like you say, the mods look to have been done professionally.
Looking forward to see what you do with it :daumenhoch:
