Has anyone got any info. regarding these grips ?
They are an early 80's OAKLEY 3 copy - with 'SUPERGOOSE BMX PRODUCTS' stamped on them.
The m o n g o o s e logo is stamped on the ends.
Is this an authenic m o n g o o s e product ?
Did they come fitted on a SUPERGOOSE of any era ?
Any info would be very much appreciated...
Thanks
B

Thanks for your comments.... ;)
I asked if anyone has ever seen them over in the US.
- The US guys seem to think that it was a UK (only) production.
I wonder if a NOS pair might turn up ? Maybe in BLUE or RED - although another pair of YELLOW would be great !

these grip's
came on my friend's yellow mongoose .
he got it in 81 it had motomag's gold renthal bars
and post gold stem and mongoose snake-belly
tyres in yellow. i had a better bike but this was much
better looking. my local bmx shop sold lot's of mongoose
stuff and also these grips as an ofter market product.
sure 78-81 very rare i had to get oakley for my goose.
gary
