The Team gooses were candy red or blue!
The motomags were half steel and half cro-moly frames so deffo weighed more! Components were a lot cheaper as well

motomag

Iirc the team had a flat spot on the rear right brake tube near the rear dropout so the chain didn't rub the tube and the serial number began with 'T'.
