Title: Restored 76 mongoose motomag
Post by: Rob356 on March 31, 2019, 10:15 PM: Just finished restoring this 76 motomag to go with my 76 survivor.

It currently has some crappy tires on it, does anyone know of a source for Cheng-shin old school style tyres in the uk?

Thanks Rob.[attachment=1]

Thanks, yes that's what I was after, was wondering whether they were available in the UK, but they aren't to bad cost wise as I believe that's for a pair!
