Title: hi from lancs uk
Post by: saxondale on April 23, 2015, 12:08 PM: Hi all,
Just dug my 83 supergoose out of my dads garage. I really want to put it back to original spec as someone has messed with it whilst its been in there for the past 20 years. Has anyone an pic or a spec list on what came with a 83 goose eg which brakes, which crank etc?
The frame is in good condition and the wheels have been relaced a year or so back.
I'm doing this to give it to my son for when he's older so want it as original as possible please.

Hope you all can give me some info and I'll try and get some pics up when I get a min.
Thanks

Nice goose 8) Won't take much to get that back to factory spec . Shame Jonnygoose isn't on here anymore , he would know the factory spec of the top of his head . Chainring and power disc are defo wrong as are the pedals . I'll see if i can find you a spec list .

Whereabouts in Lancashire are you ? Quite a few of us on here are from the sunny North West :coolsmiley:

Bit of info here ......
