Post by: kdw712 on March 10, 2008, 11:13 AM: could be a cali, a expert (less likely) or a UK spec supergoose (were these single holed ?)

main give aways are the thin rear stays esp noticable at the seat tube joint
and the single hole rear brake bridge

though its a mongoose so nothing definate, just most likely :D :daumenhoch:
