Anything to do with Goose's ...........have a word with Bobafett on here.......if he's doesn't know then no one will  :daumenhoch:

You can normally get Goose stamped headsets on the US bay
I might actually build a bike this year instead of just hoarding parts :)

mongoose stamped headset if you want to go factory spec.

Usually a few on ebay.

Stick a piccy up of your crank  :daumenhoch:

your crank, although stamped mongoose....it's pobably a sugino and should have the year stamp on the middle bit.  could be wrong though

Most 165mm goose stamped cranks are sugino made, 175mm & 180mm Takagi made and there are later HT goose stamped cranks that are possibly made by SR.

But stick a piccy up and we'll have a look  :daumenhoch:
