Title: Mongoose Hooligan 95
Post by: cherrypicker on March 15, 2008, 08:30 PM

Been offered one of these from a guy at work. It's blue, looks to be in ok condition (only seen phonecam pics). Belonged to his son who's long since buggered off. He wants £50.  I only do oldschool so don't have a clue. Anyone.........?

I read the spec on the Mongoose website and it listed the frame as chrome.  This one is blue, so it may not be a Hooligan after all  :(
I'll check it out anyway, thanks for your shouts. If it's the real deal, i'll bang it up on here.

yep that mine and sweet bike as had one bitd cheer region and they did come in other colours as well as i had a black one bitd . you can tell a hooligan as bottom tube oval`s at top and bottom of tube . they did carry on with them into inch and eight but went all gusset style and bloody heavy and horrible if you ask me .
