Right then, latest project done

Had this frame for nearly 3 years now !

I kept collecting different bits and tweaking as i went along with the build, with a final picture in mind, and I've finally achieved that picture !

Some tastey NOS bits like the NOS DX peds and NOS comp 3's etc. and some hard to find original goose bits as well - the 180mm one piece goose crank for example (right b@stard to find) and the original mongoose flight pads in decent condition are a nightmare to grab as well !

I had the pro-class rims lightly polished and clear anodised by CCA to try and achieve the original finish as close as poss rather than just polishing the living daylights out of them

Full spec:

1983 USA Supergoose 3 F&F (Re-Chromed, new decals)
Pro Size mongoose Pro-Class bars (mint OG chrome)
mongoose Pro-Class chrome stem
Tange MX3 Headset
mongoose Pro-Class rims (clear ano'd)
Shimano hubs
NOS blue/green label comp3's 1.75/1.75
NOS shimano DX pedals
mongoose 180mm pro-class one piece crank
mongoose spider
takagi chainring
NOS Izumi chaiin
NOS Kashimax Aero
Shimano DX post
NOS DiaCompe Hinged Clamp
NOS DiaCompe MX1000 Calipers with Centering Mechanism
NOS DiaCompe Tech3 Levers
NOS DiaCompe Cables/Clips
Genuine NOS mongoose grips (not repops)
Genuine survivor mongoose flight padset (not repops)

Here she is........
