here goes Its a grey/bluey frame. On handle bars and head set tube has the stickers (30 years of BMX). Head set tube also has mongoose pro in ally around the sticker. Looks stuck on to be honest. On frame has normal mongoose name plus this - big silver sticker with mongoose expert with frame/t/t length and h/t angle on it.

The headset has the brake lines going through it and 3 peice crank.

from the one pic (http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/b309/cavgsigal/image1.jpg) I have of what I thought it was going to be it looks nothing like it

I cant post my own pics as cant get them onto my computer Looks like a mix of the 2002/2003 expert to me. 2003 stickers on top tube but not in that colour. As im sort of colour blind I'd say a grey/green/blue colour frame. with everything else anodised black. tektro brakes, maxis tyres. spokes and rims in black too
