its a mongoose wire wheel, made in france I believe - still part of the mongoose range however, just less desirable

Ah Right , looks cool

Yup mongoose "wire wheel" manufactured under license from mongoose, for Ammaco, by a french 3rd party 

Not your usual USA heliarc welded goose by any means but a bit of UK mongoose history none the less.

That's a nice clean frame - the build spec is not original but not a million mile off.

Here's mine which is factory spec...........
