Moto1 ?????

My very first BMX was a Moto 1 and that had a Mongoose gussett and was a looptail. It was black with yellow bits.

Looks very similar but the moto didnt have an integrated seat clamp in the frame ...   or did it ?

Check out picture 4 and look at the BB, it looks like you can make out that weird added rectangular bit ????


The seat clamps weird though.

Is it just me or does that integrated seatclamp just look like it's a seatclamp that's just been left on the frame when it's been resprayed? Dunno though....

Really?  in that third revision photo down it looks like it's a pop-over seatclamp - otherwise that seat tube is 'phat' - genuinely interested as not seen owt like that :)
