Title: one for mongoose buffs
Post by: eloopnai on December 12, 2008, 10:41 AM: right then i have 2 supergoose 3 frames uk versions one has a round brake bridge hole the other an oval one
if any one has a 83/84 uk supergoose frame could you tell me what your hole looks like please :LolLolLolLol:
as im thinking the oval hole frame might not be a supergoose probally an expert instead but they both were stickered up with what it looked like original decals :D

if i can have some pics of your holes that would be good to :daumenhoch:

The legendary "what is a UK supergoose" thread rises again :LolLolLolLol:

Interesting question you've raised though Ian - my US supergoose has the 3 holes as mentioned above and my 2 calis have elongated holes so none of my geese from this era have a single circular hole. Hmmmm.........

Post by: eloopnai on December 12, 2008, 05:42 PM: ive got some pics somewhere will try put em up later

just need someone with a uk super who will show me there hole ;)

ive read all the other threads about these and searched other forums but as brakes are usually fitted its hard to tell what hole is there
in the what is a sg3 thread thats a sticky a fellow radster does mention the round hole but there is no come back on it :(

Title: Re: one for mongoose buffs
Post by: James Nada on December 12, 2008, 07:47 PM: I love this thread already - but can it reach the epic proportions of previous Supergoose threads?

For the record, my '84 Cali (all chromo frame) has a vertically elongated hole.
