could be a supergoose

i have a mk3 supergoose with the bigger pro class sized frame tubing
the only diff i can see between them is the weight
cos the Pro Class used thin wall tubing so i understand, they weigh feck all - frame 3lbs 10oz  and forks 1lb 10oz
& also the head tube badge looks like identical to mine as well.

like this one, i took a chance buying mine from ebay that it was a mis badged Pro class - turned out it weren't.

gotta be worth a punt though once rear drops are bent back in ....  ;)
cheers Kev

I am thinking on the same lines as Kev. Headtube decal is probably original, if so, Supergoose.

Could be, but as Sandro says the head tube decal looks original, which would mean a Supergoose.  Also need to find out where the serial number is, whether on the bottom bracket shell or on the box section behind it.

I had spotted this and asked him the question about the serial#. To be honest it looks identical to an 83 Mongoose Expert that I sold in the summer (same dropouts, brake bridge etc). To be sure you probably need to get the frame dimensions

Got it in the post this week. Dropouts have straightend out quite well, still need a bit more tweeking ;D
The chrome is good on the frame, not so good on the forks, the nice bonus was the stem that came with it was a pro class one so big smiles all round :)
Its the last goose i wanted to get and ive already got a few bits in stock for this one so im hopeing its not going to break the bank ;D
Thanks to Kev for sending me loads of info on this model.
